Inspiring African Movies Where Women Are The Heroes

From South Africa to Nigeria and Ghana, African movies with women as leads have become the favorite for many. So, we have made a list for you to celebrate the International Women’s Day.

African Movies With Women As Leads – When Love Comes Around

In this movie, Zynnell Zuh who plays lead is a lady whose ideology about love and getting rich are intertwined. Due to heartbreak from an earlier relationship, she put love aside to hunt for money. She wants to date only very rich guys, and possibly a royal. Someone has to pay for her expensive lifestyle.

But that person is not the chef who she will later-on find herself in love with. It is one of those movie cliches where she is trapped and forced to give up on her former belief about love.
