They Call It Love

The story centers on Paul, played by William Donald Powell, who finds himself leading a band while adjusting to life in Munich after the cultural revolution. His daily routine consists of time spent in a hotel bar and his studio apartment, with occasional outings to experience the nightlife or visit the suburbs.

This film is notable as King Ampaw's thesis project at the University of Television and Film Munich. It marks a significant moment in cinema history, being only the second film by an African filmmaker shot in Germany, following Ibrahim Shaddad’s Jagdpartie in 1964. With a focus on the personal struggles of an expatriate musician, They Call It Love presents a compelling narrative relevant to both film enthusiasts and those interested in the evolution of African cinema.
