Tropical Gem Studios
announced today that they will release Teco Benson’s BLOOD IN THE LAGOON on
screens nationwide this year. The film has already been named one of the films
to watch out for in 2014 by Nollywood Reinvented.
Set against the backdrop
of dichotomies surrounding the Lagos lifestyle, the film centers around George
Dibiya (Okey Uzoeshi), born into abject poverty and thrust deep into to the
drudgery fate has dealt him, George ekes out a living in the treacherous murky
waters of the waste deluged Lagos Lagoon. Just like thousands in the many slums
of Nigeria, his life story is already written and sealed by fate, even before
he came into the world. And this is not of his making. The chances of getting
any education and, maybe clawing his way out of the situation is zero to
unlikely, at best.
But after the murder
of his brother, George sets out to, not allow his brothers dream die. Along the
way, he gets entangled with the stunningly beautiful Scarlet (Omotola
Jalade-Ekeinde). “Blood in the Lagoon” is an emotionally charged and thought
provoking movie that will keep you glued to your seat till the very end.
The movie stars
Omotola Jalade-Ekehinde in her first movie release since being named one of
Times Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People In The World, alongside African
Movie Academy Awards (AMAA) nominee Okey Uzoeshi, Ufuoma Ejenobor, Akin Lewis,
Eddie Ugboma, and other notable actors.
