Epic action thriller, The Rise of Igbinogun, is set for cinema release from March 18.
With a rich feel of ancient African culture, Igbinogun is an epic tale of a young warrior who fights against injustice in her land while battling her own demons. As Igbinogun steals from the rich and helps the poor, she must watch out for the king and his guards as well as her own father. Ultimately, this is a story of a young woman embracing her destiny.
Written and directed by Ideh Chukwuma Innocent, this is a creative and adrenaline-filled film complete with drama, romance, and action. Featuring Enyinna Nwigwe, Blossom Chukwujekwu with supporting roles from Ego Nwosu, Tina Mba, and Akin Lewis, the film is certainly entertaining with its plot twists and colourful cast. Breakout star and veteran actress Damilare Kuku and Shaffy Bello shine as they deliver standout performances as Igbinogun and the Queen respectively.
The movie succeeds on almost every level where each word spoken and action made fires on all cylinders and makes the film worth watching repeatedly.
Igbinogun was produced by Tunde Aina and Innocent Chukwuma Ideh.
