Tourists, musicians, politicians, and other film industry professionals gathered to the site to support famed Ghanaian actor Kwadwo Nkansah Lilwin, who portrayed one of the leads in the film.
Nigerian actors Ramsey Nouah, Charles Awurum, and Victor Osuagwu, popularly known as ‘Awilo Sharp Sharp,’ Paa George, and Sweet Mimi, were exciting characters in the movie.
