Chapter One: Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

Kannywood films, produced in the Hausa language, often reflect the values, traditions, and social norms of northern Nigeria. These films are not only a form of entertainment but also a vehicle for promoting social and cultural ideals. Family unity, a cornerstone of Hausa culture, is frequently depicted in Kannywood films, where family relationships, respect for elders, and the importance of unity are emphasized (Sani & Umar, 2023).

In Funtua Local Government Area of Katsina State, where family plays a central role in social structure, this study will explore how Kannywood films contribute to promoting family unity and strengthening familial bonds.
