The movie has attracted much commendation since the release of
the trailer will be in cinemas across Nigeria from May 19 which is a change of
date from the earlier publicized date.
Set in Nigeria, Slow Country follows the story of Kome, a homeless
teenage mother, who in a bid to cater and secure a good life for her son Peter
sought refuge in the arms of a drug kingpin Tuvi. The kingpin ushers her into
the world of prostitution and drug trafficking. However, when faced with a
serious dilemma and the sudden return of her ex-boyfriend Osas who desperately
wants to win her heart, having abandoned her for 7 years, she gets fed up and
attempts to break free. She pleads with her boss to let her quit the underworld
but he is not ready to let go of his most trusted cash cow.
The action movie stars amazing and talented actors like: Ivie
Okujaiye-Egboh who played the role of Kome, Samasa Nzeribe who played Tuvi, the
drug kingpin, Tope Tedela as Osas, and Majid Michel as Inspector Dave. Others
are Richard Brutus as Brasko, Gina Castel as Ola, Adebayo Thomas as Peter,
Victor Eriabie, Imoudu ‘DJ Moe’ Ayonete, and Shola Thompson-Adewale.
Speaking about the premiere, the producer and director, Eric
Aghimien stated “The movie premiere will be great. We have put a lot of effort
into planning and organising a grand premiere and all those attending will have
the best time. They will also enjoy the movie which is a proof that Nollywood
can make standard action movies”
