Project Overview

Stop-motion short film based on Twi proverb "Nobody knows the beginning of a great man” (Obi nnim obrempon ahyease). A film that challenges assumptions about success and potential through carefully crafted imagery rooted in African visual culture, this film explores the invisible beginnings that precede greatness.

By combining stop-motion animation with traditional African aesthetics, the film honors the wisdom embedded in Ghanaian proverbs while exploring universal themes of ambition, growth, and the unseen journey towards accomplishment.
