TOMATOMETER
[An] engaging, earnest, loose-limbed debut feature...
Variety
[A] promising, quietly moving first feature from the directing duo of Arie and Chuko Esiri.
Hollywood Reporter
3.5 stars out of 4 -- Their voice is their own; the camera is mobile when it needs to be, but stands still much of the time, letting the excellent cast build their characters as the events of the film test their endurance.
RogerEbert.com
[T]he directors, Arie and Chuko Esiri, evocatively capture a milieu where everyone -- rich or poor -- is always hustling and bargaining.
New York Times
Product Description:
In the slums of Lagos, Rosa (Temiloluwa Ami-Williams) and Mofe (Jude Akuwudike) strive to better the lives of their struggling families, hoping to secure visas and seek new opportunities abroad. Yet both Mofe and Rosa's aspirations begin to crumble as a tragic circumstance claims each member of Mofe's family and Rosa fails to uphold her end of a critical bargain. As Rosa and Mofe contend with their guilt, they reconsider what opportunities may exist in Nigeria, looking to rebuild and strive for a fresh start without turning their backs on their home. Co-directed by Arie Esiri and Chuko Esiri.
