I can find the DVD itself but need to make contact with someone who can grant us rights. So say a little more about what you mean on the oxymoronic nature of Nollywood film rights, if you would?

Virtually no Nigerian film has been released in the US but I believe they are the 3rd largest producer of films. I guess what I meant is that there seems very little respect for copyright there and it is really hard to figure out who owns what.
