Turning Point Pictures, the producers of the upcoming movie �Ties That Bind�, which received numerous nominations in the just announced Ghana Movie Awards nominees� list, has made a statement to clear the air on Director Leila Djansi�s nomination as Best Director. The Ghana Movie Awards nominated Leila Djansi and Kevin Huie as co-directors of the movie in the Best Director category however the statement issued by Turning Point Media says Ms Djansi is the sole director for �Ties That Bind�. �Mr. Kevin Huie was a valuable part of the production as a 1st Assistant Director; a position that deals with administration processes and not the creative. Leila Djansi is the sole director of Ties That Binds and, we request that edits be made to reflect such.� �The Ghana Movie Awards team has been informed and we expect them to do their due diligence and correct this oversight. We wish to emphasis Turning Point Pictures support for the Ghana Film industry and the film industry in Africa as a whole and this is why we always include our productions in efforts that encourage progress in the industry.
