                                                  'Nature Boy'
 “Growing Up, in the suburbs, you were made to feel not Black Enough.” “ I heard stories of gangs when I was a child, from kids at school but I never experienced gang life. I attended Dirksen Middle School. I think back to those years as my last time being in a fully African American environment.” Ken Ngwa is the filmmaker behind “Nature Boy”, the new film which follows a suburban black teen as he joyrides with inner city black kids during the 4th of July weekend. “The 4th of july has always been a time of celebration and also gun violence in Chicago. I set my film in this period because you would hear stories like ``don't drive to the city, people could be shooting in the air.” A visceral gut punch of a film Nature Boy is a ready made cult film , a throwback to Larry Clark’s, “Kids” but unlike the latter, this film has hope and Afrofuturistic mysticism. “ I wanted to draw on my upbringing and tell my story through the lens. This film is my life as a teenager in the endless summers of being 16 and 17 in Chicago.” The scenes from Nature Boy are strong and unforgettable, the characters travel from the suburbs all the way to the gritty neighborhoods of the West Side of Chicago. Ken Ngwa’ talent for filmmaking was first given to the world in 2018 with his critically-acclaimed movie Scam Republique. The film wowed audiences at the New York Hip Hop Film Festival. In a year when the Black experience in America has had light shed upon it , the film Nature Boy hits home. Visit Now https://www.fiverr.com/marketers_arif?up_rollout=true

Africanized America
  I was invited to an art exhibition in Soho, New York . A neon sign at the entrance of the hall made a focal point, while what looked like a wall of books was actually a door leading to the main event space. Walking into the room, the ambiance was warm. The air tasted of marijuana and armani cologne. I got to the event just as a well endowed woman beconned patrons past a green leather-upholstered stool. There, holding court is where I met Director Ken Ngwa. Fresh from recently shooting a video for New York’s School of Performing Arts. At first glance he was welcoming. We shared a glass of red wine as we discussed his upcoming film, Nature Boy. “Nature Boy is me”, he said. “This is the story of New America, immigrant America, the other black.” Nature Boy is a film about growing up African within African American Society. “I am from the South Side of Chicago but when people hear that they immediately think ghetto or warfare, that’s not my reality. I grew up in an immigrant community of Africans. A community which focused more inward then out. I can’t tell you, four players on the Chicago Bulls, but I can tell you the latest news in Cameroon.” Ken Ngwa is a director who up until now has earned moderate success with his absurd and almost surrealistic efforts in indie filmmaking. His film “Scam Republique”, was a sheer feat of indie film grit, filmed on location in Central Africa it was one of the first films admittingly I have seen which take place in Cameroon. A country so far off the grid, I googled and mostly what I saw had to do with football. Beaming on the cusp of success, Ngwa seems poised to explode onto the contemporary stage of cinema . Nature Boy was filmed in the guerilla film style. “We shot for 28 days, on the westside and the southside of Chicago. It was a bit scary, I was almost shot. Chicago is no joke but the story needed to be told.” Mostly known as a guerilla music film director he burst onto the scene of New York notoriety with a 2020 music video titled “New Bosses Remix” a Wu Tang affiliated song which featured the actor and movie star, Method Man. When asked about his experiences with that project, Ken Ngwa had the following to say, “ Filming New Bosses was liberating, I got to thank everyone involved in the Wu Tang camp, especially Intell . They gave me a platform and an opportunity to come in and create, you can’t hate on that, it’s only love.” I left our encounter unsure of what the future holds in store for this director but one thing is for sure, It will be entertaining.

An Emerging Filmmaker Article written by Tambay Obenson 
December 14, 2020 (Article Originally Appears in Indiewire.com )
 Ken Ngwa’ talent for filmmaking was first given to the world in 2018 with his critically-acclaimed movie Scam Republique wowed audiences at the New York Hip Hop Film Festival. Today, Africans comprise 5.1% of all immigrants to the United States. With this increased education a new American identity has formed, the American African. Today we profile the American- African director Ken Ngwa. He has a new film called Nature Boy which discusses a taboo subject within the Black community, the relations between African and African American people. Ken Ngwa is a filmmaker/businessman based in Brooklyn, New York. He is the founder and CEO of Sun People Productions a company which primarily focuses on inclusivity and diversity in digital representation. “I never saw anyone who was like myself growing up in the media. I come from an inward facing Immigrant community. I couldn’t name a Chicago Bull but Michael Jordan but I could tell you the newest news in Yaounde, Cameroon, or the newest happenings occurring in Paris. This was my reality.” A new generation of African filmmakers are drawing on that rich cultural heritage while striking out on their own, telling contemporary stories through new techniques and aesthetics. Ken Ngwa is an up-and-coming director from Cameroon though raised in Chicago; his work is steeped in the culture and voice of his homeland with two Staff Picks, his feature film, “Scam Republique” and music video, “New Bosses” under his belt. His upcoming film Nature Boy, is fresh.Through stunning shots and a hauntingly sparse soundtrack, Nature Boy captures nostalgic and painful moments of teenage life in Chicago. According to the Hollywood Insider various distribution companies are vying for rights. Nature Boy is a look at conflict in Chicago’s hardest-hit neighborhoods, from a suburban black perspective. If it makes you uncomfortable, take a breath; you’re right where the film wants you to be. @kenngwa @sunpeopleproductions

মহিলাদের জন্য ঘর আর পুরুষের জন্য বাহির।নিয়ম টি যিনি চালু করেছিলেন,সত্যি তিনি জ্ঞানী।মহিলারা ঘরে থাকলে শুধু একজন পুরুষের মানুষীক বিপর্যয় ঘটে।মহিলারা যদি বাইরে থাকতো সমগ্রহ পুরুষ জাতির মানুশীক বিপর্যয় ঘটতো।মহিলা দ্বারা সৃষ্টি ভাইরাসের নাম প্যাড়া।✌✌
