This powerful father-son moment is one for the books, a passing of the torch and a celebration of legacy, talent, and family.”

A silent dream coming to life — and I got to share it with the man, the legend, my father. Grateful is an understatement. I’m truly blessed beyond measure, and I can’t wait for y’all to see it.”
The film is a cross-cultural drama set between Nigeria and Utah, USA. It follows the emotional journey of a Nigerian-American couple grappling with infertility and the weight of cultural expectations.
