Northern Affair, the much
talked about movie directed by Leila Djansi, was on last Thursday premiered for
a cross section of the media. One thing that was noticeable apart from the
excellent location was the acting skills of presenter, musician and now actor
Jon Germain.
In an interview with
the movie debutante, he couldn’t hide his surprise at his own performance, “This
is my first time acting in a movie. I have never acted before.

I never thought
I could act - it took my sister, Leila and my mother to convince me to take
this up. I had been receiving scripts for a very long time but I always told
them I don’t think I can act. So I think I did my best.” He stated adding that that
the experience has caused him to revere actors in a special way, as it takes a
lot of effort for a flawless act.
Director Leila Djansi
stated that the movie, which bears a semblance to “And Then There Was You”, was shot for commercial purposes. “I just
wanted to be a little bit more commercial and do something for fun. It’s simply
a love story, just a passion project for all of us.” She stated.

The passion project
turned out well and would be “outdoored” at a grand red carpet premiering event
at the National Theatre in Accra on January 3, 2014. Written
and directed by Leila Djansi, it is produced by Access Media, owned by Mabel
Germaine with support from Ifactory Live.
The movie was premiered
in Ho during the Christmas.
