Fola (a magnetic Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù) is an enigmatic figure in his sons’ lives. As they traverse Lagos, Remi and Akin (real-life brothers Chibuike Marvellous and Godwin Egbo) begin to understand him as a person, and the sacrifices he has made for them. But as Nigeria’s presidential election results loom, events transpire that will dramatically change their relationship with him.
Akinola Davies Jr’s intimate and resplendent film chronicles two brothers spending a rare day with their father in Lagos.
