Set to debut early next month, the streamer's first African Original movie showcases the gritty side of Isale Eko, Lagos state.
Directed and produced by Osiberu, the high-stakes action crime-thriller follows a group of friends who have to navigate their own destiny on the bustling streets.
The inspiration for this story came in 2016 while the filmmaker was shooting a scene of Gidi Up season 3 on a rooftop in Isale Eko.
