Actress, Omowunmi Dada, has explained why the team behind the forthcoming film, ‘Black Market’, opted for a Guinness World Record attempt instead of a conventional premiere.
Directed by Fatimah Binta-Gimsay, the movie tells the story of five women involved in a cross-border smuggling operation amid fuel scarcity, whose lives take a dramatic turn after one of their daughters is kidnapped.
The film stars Dada alongside Linda Ejiofor-Suleiman, Lateef Adedimeji, Scarlet Gomez, Teniola Aladese, Susan Pwajok and Uzor Arukwe, among others.
The producers are set to hold a screening at Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos, on September 26, as they attempt to set a Guinness World Record for the largest attendance at a film screening in a single location.
Dada, who also serves as an executive producer on the project, said the idea was to create an experience that would go beyond a traditional film premiere and make a broader cultural statement.
