It was the movie’s second screening in the capital Accra after its main premiere on September 19th, 2014.
No movie has so far gone off the cinemas in Accra for several months and made a comeback to register a cinema success but A Letter From Adam did that on Saturday. It was a sold out event as it broke turnout records at the West Hills Mall Cinema.
Screening started 7:30pm with one cinema hall but Lydia and her team was forced into making arrangement for an additional hall, which also got full in no time.

There were still large numbers of people demanding for tickets but cinema operators had to stop selling because it was late.
The actress took to social media on Sunday morning to apologize to movie fans who couldn’t see the movie saying, “biggest turn out for a movie, both foreign and local at the West Hills Mall since its opening! Record set! Haven’t slept all night because I’m still trying to take it all in.
I sincerely apologize to everyone who came and couldn’t come in because it was full. We didn’t anticipate this and it was too late to do another showing…”
