The much talked about action movie, Slow Country, produced by Eric Aghimien hits cinemas across the country today.
Set in Nigeria, Slow Country highlights the issues of human and drug trafficking, and is the story of Kome, a homeless teenage mother, who in a bid to secure a good life for her son, seeks refuge in the arms of a drug kingpin, Tuvi who ushers her into the world of prostitution and drug trafficking.
However, when faced with a serious dilemma and the sudden return of her ex-boyfriend, Osas who desperately wants to win her heart, having abandoned her for seven years, she gets fed up and attempts to break free from Tuvi. She pleads with her boss to let her quit but he is not ready to let go of his most trusted cash cow.
Slow Country stars Ivie Okujaiye-Egboh, Sambasa Nzeribe, Tope Tedela and Majid Michel. Others are Richard Brutus, Gina Castel, Adebayo Thomas, Victor Eriabie, Imoudu ‘DJ Moe’ Ayonete, and Shola Thompson-Adewale.
“Crafting a great action film in Nigeria is no child’s play. Every character in the movie was carefully built, and each cast member portrayed his or her character well. We paid attention to details every step of the way. This movie is a must watch for all and I promise it will not only be worth your time but also your money,” Aghimien said.
