Nov. 25, 2010 - PRLog -- Montreal, Canada  – Canadian-based ID Communications Inc. announces the release of ‘Through the Glass’ , the directorial debut by Stephanie Okereke, on screens in Bern, Switzerland on November 27, 2010, it was announced today in Montreal by Dan Shannon, President of ID Communications, the films international sales rep.
"Stephanie has really pulled together an amazing start to her career behind the lens. After years of being a top drawing star for mostly Nollywood produced pictures, she has chosen to study film making in New York, and financed her first film, which she has also written and directed." says Mr Shannon.

“Though the camera clearly loves her, Stephie has cast herself in role as 'the girl next door', allowing her co-star Garret Mckechnie to shine in his comic role as Jeffrey, a committed bachelor whose past is catching up to him." says Mr. Shannon.
“Interestingly Stephanie's film is clearly targeting a mainstream worldwide audience, as evidenced by the release in Switzerland of this picture, which is completely set and shot in California, with just a wink to Nigerian culture in some pretty funny food scenes.  Though the film will please a wide base, with a Nigerian population of 150 Million and large communities of ex-pats in every country, "Through the Glass"  will attract the diaspora as well, given Stephanie is a household name for Nigerian film lovers. Nollywood has no greater ambassador.  
 Stephanie is also getting as healthy dose of well-deserved  recognition on other fronts as she was recently invited to New York for exclusive readings with the likes of Meryl Streep" adds Mr. Shannon.

The long awaited European premiere of "Through the Glass" starts November 27, 2010, information and tickets are available at http://www.movies.ch/de/film/throughtheglass/ .

The DVD release will be announced for early December, see trailer at http://411films.com
