ABOUT
THE DRAMA SERIES
This is a thirty (30) minutes per episode television series centred around how Nigerians are exposed to diverse issues on accountability and anti-corruption and how ordinary Nigerians are responding and taking steps to improve the system. A series that maintains its integrity as an entertainment program while it throws light on Social Justice issues. Essentially, a drama series which highlights corruption issues including promoting accountability, transparency, reducing corruption and the need for continued engagement.
The series will also highlight policies, systems and practices that stifle the voice of vulnerable groups (particularly women and youth) and make it difficult for them to effectively participate in the political, economic and social life of their communities in elective, appointive, and other decision-making capacities.
We seek to use the power of film to build a dramatic structure that helps people to not only see the issues that the drama addresses, but also see themselves in the stories. Our goal is to use the power of film to strengthen communities and improve lives. We believe that by partnering with non-profits, Nigerian storytellers can create stories that are both artistically compelling and socially significant.
