My Father's Shadow
Amid the turmoil of Nigeria's 1993 election crisis, two teenage brothers accompany their distant father on a day‑long trek through the bustling streets of Lagos.

The film blends gritty realism with quiet moments of introspection, capturing the tension between personal hardship and a nation on the brink of upheaval. Its distinctive tone lies in the juxtaposition of youthful curiosity against a father's silent struggle, painting a portrait of resilience amid uncertainty.
