Editi Effiong's first feature film is set to premiere later next month. Produced and directed by the storyteller, the mystery and crime thriller film explores old scores that surface when a gang of corrupt policemen kill a man’s only son and he begins a search for justice.

As the lead, Richard Mofe-Damijo had to prepare not just mentally or emotionally, but physically too. He did a lot of boxing, weapons training, and fight sequences alongside Denola Grey, who plays his son in the movie.
