Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | Having grown out of the development of digital film techology of the past two decades, Nollywood is today the world's second largest film industry (second only to the Indian film industry). The name itself comes from a portmanteau of its country of origin, "Nigeria", and "Hollywood" in a similar fashion to that of Bollywood. It has been said that around two hundred home videos (especially DVDs) are churned out of Nigeria every month. While Nigerian cinema has been around for decades, the Nollywood era is a relatively recent development. |
