Aiflix360 Gets Four Wins at India Film Festival
Nigeria’s presence in the global film space has received a significant boost as AiFlix360 Films, an artificial intelligence–driven film studio founded by entrepreneur and filmmaker Dr. Ope Banwo, secured four major honours at the 2026 Nawada International Film Festival Awards (NIFFA) in India.
The awards were presented at the sixth edition of the festival held on January 4, 2026, in Nawada, Bihar, where AiFlix360 Films emerged as one of the most celebrated studios, winning across Documentary, Animation, Foreign Film, and Feature Film categories.
Among the winning titles, ‘Wakanda Is Real’ earned the “Best Documentary Film” award, while ‘Detty December’ was named “Best Animation Film”. ‘Guardians of Naija’ clinched the “Best Foreign Film” prize, and ‘Talent Hunt’ completed the impressive outing by winning “Best Feature Film”.
The Nawada International Film Festival attracted strong global participation, with over 2,300 films submitted by producers from more than 80 countries, underscoring the competitiveness of the awards and the growing acceptance of emerging filmmaking models.
Reacting to the recognition, Dr. Banwo described the achievement as a defining moment for AI-powered storytelling.
“Our wins at NIFFA show that artificial intelligence can expand creative possibilities rather than replace artistic intent,” he said. “We are building a filmmaking process where technology supports strong narratives, efficient production, and bold ideas that can compete on any international stage.”
AiFlix360 Films operates as an AI-first studio, integrating story development, cinematic direction, voice performance design, AI-assisted animation, and advanced post-production workflows to deliver premium film content for African and global audiences.
The four-award success positions the studio as a notable force in the rapidly evolving world of AI-powered cinema and reinforces its long-term vision of creating a scalable, African-led film production model driven by innovation without compromising storytelling quality.
