Support: The Passport of Mallam Ilia

Magic Carpet studios bring to life, Cyprian Ekwensi’s 1960 short novel titled:

 ‘The Passport of Mallam Ilia’ in 2D animation.

  
First published in 1960, The Passport of Mallam Ilia tells the story of Mallam Ilia’s quest to avenge the death of his beautiful wife Zarah at the hands of Mallam Usuman. Although a fairly short story, (the book is 100 pages long) the plot spans several decades. It starts some time within the late 1800s or early 1900s and ends in 1947 or maybe early 1948.

The animated movie featured the voice talent of veteran Nigerian artist, Sadiq Daba and a host of others. Get the full gist on how to support this project at : http://iliathemovie.com/
