NEW YORK - EntSun -- Today, InterGrace Productions presents a celebration of Hollywood and Nollywood with the launch of its 1st Annual Nigeria Family & Faith International Film Festival on FIlmocracy.com. The film festival will celebrate people of color in front and behind the camera as well as leverage the power of cinema and storytelling to celebrate our shared humanity.

"Storytelling and imagery through movies truly matter in our society, especially when it comes to positively changing the perspectives (and behaviors) of how we all view each other as fellow human beings on this planet," states Dr. Tyrha M. Lindsey-Warren, Lead Producer of the Nigeria Family & Faith International Film Festival. "This inaugural film festival is our team's attempt to leverage the power of storytelling to open hearts and minds, while doing our part to positively impact the film industry by presenting more diverse voices."

According to Variety.com, there are 200 million consumers within the family and faith-based community in the U.S. This consumer market is valued at $2.1 trillion. Moreover, since the beginning of this genre, faith-based movies have amassed over $2 billion dollars. The Nigeria Family & Faith International Film Festival is "dedicated to empowering the creative spirit, serving all with heart, and celebrating family and faith."  In Year 1, the Nigeria Family & Faith International Film Festival will be an online festival that will present competition films on Filmocracy.com and will incorporate church screenings in Lagos, Nigeria. The former, Filmocracy.com, is an online film festival community that delivers the best independent content experience in the world.
