It’s sweet working with girls - Adjetey Anang





Popular actor Adjetey Anang has told 'News-One'
that he finds it convenient and exciting working with
female filmmakers.
Adjetey, who was known as ‘Pusher’ in the TV series,
‘Things We Do For Love’, said female filmmakers are
flexible to work with.
He said the Female filmmakers are understanding
and treat their cast and crew with some decorum.
Pusher is married to Elorm, a beautiful lady he met
on the set of ‘Things We Do For Love’.
“It’s sweet. It is sweet, that’s the word. It’s sweet
working with female filmmakers because despite the
fact that they are very strong and they want to be
strong because they know that people can easily take
advantage of them, they have soft-spots.
They are more understanding.
“They are like mothers.
Even when they have challenges, they will ask of your
opinion, than the guys who will be like, hey this is my
way, just do it.
There is always a slight difference when it comes to
that human rapport. So yeah it is sweet working with
female filmmakers,” he told NEWS-ONE at the
media preview of his latest movie, ‘Announcement’.
Adjetey has worked with a number of Ghanaian
female producers and directors including award-
winning Shirley Frimpong- Manso on projects like ‘A
Sting In A Tale’, ‘Adams Apples’ and the recently,
‘Potomanto’, among others.
He also worked with Habiba Nelson on her
‘Masquerades’ film and subsequently with actress
Kafui Danku on ‘Letters To My Mother’.
His latest movie, ‘Announcement’, which premieres at
the National Theatre in Accra on January 31, was
also produced and directed by filmmaker Evelyn
Robinson, who is making her debut in Ghana’s movie
industry after studying filmmaking in the UK.
He described working with Evelyn as “refreshing.”
The new movie tells the story of Harriet, the 11-
year-old daughter of Rev. Martin Sam, who was
kidnapped by Samuel Mama, a young man who
managed to break out of prison seven years into his
life sentence.
Samuel Mama asked Rev. Sam to make a public
announcement that he committed the crime for
which (Samuel Mama) was imprisoned if he wants his
daughter alive.
Also in this movie are David Dontoh, Anthony Woode,
Doris Sackitey, Kafui Danku, Amanda Jissih, Fred
Amugi, Albert Jackson-Davis and Peter Ritchie,
among others.
