Nigeria
Joseph Ugochukwu
The daily destruction of the lives of African youths who are forced by hardship into various crimes for survival, as typified in the ghettos of Nigeria. This movie represents a new tendency among the Nigerian film industry and film directors, who apart from Nollywood begun to develop a high quality cinema, accessible to a worldwide audience. Film professionals started to produce quality movies, despite the financial challenges that are obstacles to certain projects. Joseph Ugochukwu is part of the new movement.
