Sobre o filme

The film follows the routine of the protagonists Mofe, a factory technician, and Rosa, a hairdresser, in Lagos, Nigeria. After Mofe loses his family and Rosa fails to deliver on a promise, their travel plans collapse forcing them to reconsider living abroad. As time passes and wounds heal, they learn the future they desperately seek can be built at home. With a dramatic but everyday narrative, the feature explores the first step of the socioeconomic ladder, in which status, color skin, family structures and money are connected.
