New Ghanaian Movie The Destiny of Lesser Animals By Yao Nunoo Featuring The Legendary Edina

The Lincoln Film Society is one of the world’s most prominent film presentation organizations which focuses on putting various America Independent and world cinema into the spotlight, throwing weight and support behind them and recognize new filmmakers.

Since its formation in 1969, the film society has introduced to movie lovers the remarkable works of many of the world’s most celebrated filmmakers such as Spike Lee, François Truffaut, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Jean-Luc Godard, Steve Speilberg and others.

It is refreshing to know that, a new Ghanaian filmmaker based in Accra and Philadelphia “Yao Nunoo” has secured entry to the 2011 Lincoln Film Society’s New Director/New Film Festival with his movie “The Destiny of Lesser Animals”.

In “The Destiny of Lesser Animals” , “after deportation from the United States, Ghanaian National Police Inspector Boniface Koomsin makes the last payment on a “perfect” counterfeit passport, only to have it immediately stolen. Desperate to recover it, Boniface enlists the resources of the police on the pretense of a stolen pistol and follows a tip to the capital city of Accra and the counterfeiter who crafted the fake document.

In Accra, Chief Inspector Oscar Darko, who is investigating an armed robbery and believes their cases are connected, intercepts Boniface. Together, they follow a lead to casino hostess Serwah Bimpong, who refuses to cooperate. Later, while taking time to visit his father’s grave, Boniface encounters a mysterious Beggar Girl who disappears before he can learn her name. The evening, Boniface returns to the casino where a violent confrontation with the suspect takes place. Amidst the chaos, the suspect escapes.

The next day, Boniface and Oscar investigate the overnight murder of an American ex-pat. Connecting the crime with the earlier robbery, they return to Serwah’s house to press her for answers. Serwah ultimately caves and identifies their suspect: a reckless drifter named Yaro. Boniface later confesses to Oscar the truth about his own investigation: it is his counterfeit passport, not his pistol, he has been after all along.

Oscar immediately throws Boniface off the case. Seeking redemption, Boniface decides to track the murderous Yaro himself – only to discover that his effort is much too late”
