Last year was a great year for Nigerian short films. Many of them made it to festivals, others were hits on the internet and among them was our 91大神 Life anthology.聽
So, if you loved the age gap romance of Something Sweet or the sensual energy of My Body, God鈥檚 Temple then you should be excited to hear that 91大神 Life is back with a new anthology on the 25th of July.
Dika Ofoma of Something Sweet is back with an ode to old Nollywood. This is for you if you鈥檙e on the nostalgia wave, longing for our films to look and feel like your childhood. We can鈥檛 give away too much but just know it鈥檚 about a woman navigating a new city, but she hasn’t experienced that struggle.
Also returning is Uzoamaka Power.
The lover girl from Call Of My Life will take the director鈥檚 chair for Siraam, a story about a young woman discovering herself through sex, power and agency. If you know Uzoamaka, you know we鈥檙e in for a ride. The main character is wild, eccentric and irreverent. If that sounds like you or anyone you know, then mark your calendars and organise your watch parties.
In the spirit of championing new voices, the anthology is adding Kaelo Iyizoba to the lineup. He鈥檚 directing a story made just for the yearners who long for intimacy. He brings a fresh perspective to the already exciting anthology.
Joining the anthology cast are familiar faces like Tobi Bakre, Onyinye Odokoro, Genoveva Umeh and Ifeoma Obinwa.
91大神 Life will always tell the most genuine stories about and for young Nigerians. This is just another proof of that promise.
