Nadine, a daughter of Nigerian minister of environment and deputy secretary-general of the United Nation, Aisha Mohammed has worked on projects for the United Nations, Fictionless films, EbonyLife TV and FilmOne.
Nadine studied media and film production at the University of Gloucestershire before working with the UN and co.
Last year April, after the release of her captivating, call-to-action and award-winning film, Through Her Eyes, Nadine tied the knot with Nasir Ibrahim who she refers to as the love of her life and a person she would choose over and over again.
In an interview, when asked about how her mother influences her, the filmmaker says her mom is dedicated towards making the world the type of place that everyone wants to actually live in. And, she will like to change the world just as her mom does.
Recently, Nadine was pictured having a conversation with famous Nigerian playwright, Woke Soyinka.
In March, being honoured for her beautiful works, she graced the cover for Women’s Hub in Businessday magazine.
Nadine’s works
Among the young filmmaker’s numerous works, her acclaimed film, Through Her Eyes is one that in its entirety, urges viewers to seek to discover the root of suicide bombing as an insurgency in Nigeria and the world at large. It also posits that youths in particular use whatever tool they have to seek solutions to violence in Nigeria.
In a recent interview, she says: “I hope when people watch the film that they will think differently about what is happening in the country and that they will reconsider how their particular tools can be used to engage in important issues in our country. The youth can’t just leave it to the older generation because it doesn’t seem to be affecting us directly. At the end of the day, it will affect us all.”
The story portrays the involvement of female children in a suicide bombing which is recorded as 75% of children bomber cases in the world.
Also, Nadine just released another short film which is a little bit longer than Through her eyes but is as well enthralling.
Tolu, a film of a bold and courageous 12-year-old girl relishes in the adage, “What a man can do, a woman even a girl, can do better.”
From her works, we can tell that Nadine is a young, focused and gifted woman whose creativity in film production is truly commendable. Hence, the reason why we admire her and crushing on her today.
