Sahara Foundation, a scion of Sahara Group, will premiere its short film titled Hanatu on Friday, July 7, 2017, at Terra Kulture in Victoria Island, Lagos to a select audience.

Thereafter, the film will be made available to the general public on Sahara’s website (www.sahara-group.com) and social media platforms, several leading news websites and entertainment channels.

Hanatu is a Sahara Foundation inspired short film shot by prolific Nigerian filmmaker, Mr Kunle Afolayan, which tells the story of how a young corps member named Preye helps a little girl (Hanatu) in a village rediscover her confidence and hope for a bright future when he helps her secure a prosthetic leg following a dastardly accident which claimed her father’s life.

Head of Corporate Communications at Sahara Group, Mr Bethel Obioma, noted that Hanatu epitomizes Sahara’s commitment to sustainability, responsibility and extrapreneurship.

 “It is an expression of who we are and what we do – providing opportunities for aspirations to blossom into fruition. It is the mantra of hope; the demystification of impossibilities; a clarion call for sustainable development across climes and times,” the company’s spokesperson said.

Mr Obioma explained that the world is replete with Hanatus who deserve a shot at realising their dreams and rekindling their hope with the right support.

“At Sahara, Hanatu is more than a film, it is the gold standard we believe should drive all interventions geared towards sustainable development – an unwavering desire to support the less privileged.

“With a Hanatu orientation as our driving force, we are constantly seeking partnerships and opportunities for giving wings to hope and enhancing the achievement of the SDGs across the globe,” he added.

He said the leading African conglomerate which has operations in over 10 countries across four continents will use Hanatu to reiterate the need for a global commitment to accelerated developmental programmes through collaboration involving governments, global development agencies, civil organisations and the private sector.
