Mbrella Films
Film Production Company in Ghana
Ghana is located in West Africa and is famous for its colonial-era trade castles, busy neighborhood towns, and beaches. Many films that have a set-up in the colonial era were shot here, including “The Woman King ” which sent the second unit to shoot some of their scenes in Ghana. The country also has famous actors like “Idris Elba” who made his way to Hollywood and turned many producer’s eyes to the country, not just for the actor but for the location as well. Mbrella Films, one of the production houses here, saw the opportunity to turn Ghana into the dream destination for many film productions that still look out for the location.

Cape Coast
The city of Cape Coast is known for its rich history, fishing port, and designated World Heritage Site.

Prampram
Prampram is a coastal town located in the Ningo Prampram just 45 minutes from Accra and is an emerging center of industrial activities. The town also has some of the cleanest white sand beaches in the country, dotted with several pleasure spots for tourists and holidaymakers.
