‘Vibes The Movie’ wins top award at American Motion Pictures Festival
According to an official statement from the festival, “the film was recognized for its originality, craftsmanship, and storytelling impact” among a competitive pool of international entries.
“We are delighted to inform you that Vibes The Movie has received an OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARD in the February 2026 Session of the American Motion Pictures Festival!”, the statement read.
The movie, released in 2025, stars Big Ghun and Jeffrey Nortey, following two friends’ attempt to break free from low-paying jobs in pursuit of building a business, reflecting themes of youth ambition and economic struggle in Accra.
The series, featuring the characters Lil Pui and Obolo Tui, amassed over 10 million views within a year and attracted collaborations with several public figures.
Directed by Big Ghun, the film was promoted as a street-to-big-screen project, highlighting its transition from digital content to a full-length cinematic production.
Industry observers say the recognition signals increasing global attention on locally produced Ghanaian content.
The American Motion Pictures Festival, a U.S.-based non-profit film platform, showcases independent films from around the world and recognises outstanding productions across various categories.
Vibes The Movie’s award adds to a growing list of international acknowledgements for Ghanaian filmmakers, as the industry continues to expand its global reach.
