About This Movie

The film centers on Kemi, a Nigerian teen whose penchant for gossip spirals into conflict, revealing the power of words and their unintended consequences. The performances feel authentic, capturing the struggle and humor of everyday life. There's a certain pacing that reflects the ebb and flow of community life, and while the direction remains largely uncredited, the storytelling resonates with a genuine vibe. Not your typical immigrant narrative; it’s more about the nuances of cultural intersection and the chaos that gossip can unleash.
