Uzoamaka Power; Del-York Creative Academy alumna, award-winning actress, and screenwriter, has done something quietly extraordinary with Call of My Life. She took a story that began as three abandoned pages on a Word document in 2018 and turned it into one of Nollywood's most talked-about films of the year.
The film follows Soluchi, a hopeless romantic working at a call centre in Lagos, whose life shifts when a single phone call opens the door to a love she had stopped believing in. Uzoamaka didn't only write that character. She became her.
Call of My Life is in cinemas now. Go get your tickets, this one is not to be missed.

Two Del-York Creative Academy alumni walked into the 2026 AMVCAs with one film, and walked out with the Best Short Film award.
Josh Olaoluwa and Orire Nwani. Coursemates turned collaborators. Their short film, "Hussaini," beat out a competitive field to claim one of the most celebrated prizes of the night.
Josh has produced #1 titles on both Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. He is the first international fellow ever accepted into the Film Independent Project Involve programme in Los Angeles.
Orire has taken films to the New York Tri-State Film Festival, Nollywood Week Paris, and the Smithsonian National Museum of African Art in Washington D.C.
For both of them, it started with a decision to train.
Congratulations, Josh and Orire. We are immensely proud.
