The much anticipated movie ‘Shadow Parties’ is set to hit the cinemas across the world this August for the viewing pleasure of movie lovers.

The Media Concept Studio sponsored movie was produced and directed by exceptionally creative Yemi Amodu.

The movie is having Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde as the lead actress with Yemi Blaq as the lead actor.

It is also featuring Paris based film and stage actress, Magdalena Korpas, including Hollywood actor and producer, Lucien Morgan.
Other casts in the movie are Segun Arinze, Sola Sobowale, Hafis Oyetoro, Prince Jide Kosoko, Ken Erics, Toyin Abraham, Said Balogun, Sola Kosoko, Rotimi Salami and others.

Shot in locations in Lagos, Ibadan, Akure, Osun, Ekiti, Shadow Parties focuses on treating communal clashes and the evil inherent in them.

It is a story about Aremu (Ken Erics) who hails from Aje, a town that neighbours Iludun, where his wife, Arike (Toyin Aimakhu) was born. Known for fratricidal wars, which had claimed the lives of Arike’s parents, the towns were one more time thrown into war after the kinsmen of Aremu decided to burn his wife and child claiming she was an enemy and also triggering a reprisal attack from the Iluduns led by Lowo (Yemi Blaq), Arike’s brother.

A paradox of communal clash, Shadow Parties encapsulates the endless political intrigues that would later transform into blood business of arms and ammunition and of course the killings of innocent residents, which is an exposition of reality.

*Yemi Amodu

According to the director, Yemi Amodu, movie lovers should watch out for a very good movie with very enriched production.

He explained that it was pretty easy choosing Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde as the lead actress, not just because she is marketable but for the fact that she is a good actress and interprets role excellently.

Amodu highlighted the need for government intervention in the movie industry while explaining that they have spent close to N100m on the project.

He said plans are also in place to showcase Shadow Parties at major film festivals across the world.

*Hollywood actor, Lucien Morgan

In a chat with P.M.EXPRESS, Hollywood actor and producer and one of the actors in the movie, Lucien Morgan, posited that Nigeria has got good actors but there is not enough government assistance.

He said that in about five years time that Nollywood will experience a boom.

Lucien said when movies like Shadow Parties and other Nollywood works get nominated and win major awards, that the industry will be better for it.

He advised the Federal government to show genuine interest and strictly enforce laws against privacy to help the growth of the movie industry in Nigeria.
