    We are eagerly anticipating more excellent cinematic work like this.

    At the very moment when you believe that Nollywood is going to shatter your heart once more, Bolanle Austen-Peters arrives to restore your trust, acting as if she were a guardian angel in the world of movie. 🎌✨ Because every aspect of the film, including the dialogues, cinematography, sound, and editing, was polished to an almost faultless level, it is clear that she is a quality-oriented person. It is as if she personally whispered to the crew all of them, "Thou shalt not cut corners!" πŸ˜† The experience of watching this historical masterpiece was similar to travelling back in time, with the exception of the poor dress choices that were made. Aside from the fact that it was visually spectacular, it also carried a powerful punch with motivational teachings on the importance of having bravery, resiliency, and tenacity. In a nutshell, if you came to the conclusion that you were not driven, it is possible that you are resistant to inspiration!

    And while we're on the subject of the actors, I must say that Kehinde Bankole, Omowunmi Dada, and Patrick Diabuah killed it in their respective parts. To put it another way, how are you even able to complain when doing this well is presented to you on a silver platter? 🍽πŸ”₯ Bolanle! We appreciate you sharing this story with us, and we ask that you please continue to do so; we are eagerly anticipating more of your excellent cinematic work. πŸ‘πŸ¨πŸ‘πŸΎ

    Just when you give up on Nollywood, then comes Bolanle Austen-Peters!

    Nollywood has been releasing a large amount of mediocre movies lately that you can only lose hope on the industry.

    Then comes Bolanle with an impeccable production!! You can tell she puts a great accent on quality because the dialogues, cinematography, sound, editing, etc were so carefully executedπŸ˜ƒ

    It was a breath of fresh air to have a historical movie that took us back in the past and taught inspiring lessons on courage, resilience, and determination.

    How can you even complain when you have fantastic actors like Kehinde Bankole, Omowunmi Dada, and Patrick Diabuah?? 😍

    Thank you for telling this story and we look forward to more films of this genre. Well done!!
