| VVIP exclusive screening in Lagos: Stars celebrate the Dora Akunyili-inspired-movie ‘A Place In The Stars’ |
The Four Points Sheraton Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, came alive on
Sunday, October 12, 2014, when Native Filmworks Limited, pioneer film producers and the makers of the
feature movie, “A Place in the Stars”, hosted an exclusive screening of the
movie.
This entirely private affair is
part of a series of activities leading up to the November 2014 premiere of the
movie, and was awash with Very Important Personalities (VIP) guests, including
the crème de la crème of the Lagos business community.
Directed
and produced by the celebrated film maker, Steve Gukas, A Place in the Stars is
a riveting voyage into the dark under-world of fake drugs trafficking and of
the harrowing consequences to the most vulnerable members of society.
Set in
2006 Nigeria, A Place in the Stars tells the story of Kim Dakim (Gideon Okeke),
a young lawyer with a case and a client that leave him professionally
conflicted. Kim is in possession of information that could save scores, if he
would only pass it on. Faced with the deathly consequences of crossing
'industry' kingpins, including the toughest of them all, Diokpa
Okonwo (Segun Arinze); and with millions to earn if he would only turn a blind eye, Kim
battles conscience and professional responsibility as he determines which way
to turn.
Also
starring in the movie are Dejumo Lewis, Yemi Blaq, Femi Branch, Matilda
Obaseki, Julian Mcdowell, Armajit Deu and Amaka Mgbor.
From the story treatment to screenplay, costume to production design, A Place in the Stars, together with its crop of A-list cast, is in a class of its own - for movie magical experience.
