Veteran actress, Liz Benson is back on the screen  in a new movie titled, “Busted’’

Busted tells the love story of a gay couple.

It is the story of a girl, Queen Edwards who was born into a reputable home.

But the father’s high handedness and mother’s lackadaisical attitude led her to a maid who lured her into lesbianism.

She continued the act into adulthood dating and breaking up with different ladies.

In the process, Queen falls in love with a lady called Blessing who got into the act for financial gains.

When the government signed the anti-gay bill into law, the lovers ignored their Biblical beliefs and societal views of lesbianism which challenged their love for each other.

The law becomes their tussle which led to the test of their love and eventually busted by the law.

Busted, which also featured seasoned acts such as Kate Henshaw, Paul Obazele, IK Ogbonna, Tony Umez, Chika Okpara, Bryan Okwara and other new talented actors in the movie industry, is directed by Pat Oghre and Damijo Efe-Young.

Liz  Benson, one of the screen divas in the early days of Nollywood, later retired and went into evangelism.

Similarly, Obazele, who also acted in many soap operas’ on National Television in the 90s, has been off the screen for some years.
