Holy City

This film, set in modern day Eastern part of Nigeria tells the story of how a once multi racial community was torn apart in wake of reprisal attacks for the killing of some Easterners in the North. It is a mockery of the unnecessary and unending religious crisis in Nigeria and in many parts of the world (Dafur, Sudan).

It goes to explores the diverse effects ethnic crisis will have on the socio-economic, political and cultural life of a nation, and democracy if nothing is done to curb it.


The film stars

Jim Iyke
Mike Ezuronye
Oge Okoye
Emeka Amakeze
Chinedu Oga
Prince Nwafor

It’s a good film considering the rating of one of the best film critics i’ve ever known http://nollywoodforever.com . Its success in the Nigerian Market and in Diaspora cannot be overemphasized. Though it’s a low budget film, the content is educating, inspiring and most importantly, it boldly brings to fore the futility in ethnic wars and the fact that it does not decide who is right rather who is LEFT.
