Zahra(Nicole Ndigwe) is determined to survive despite all the odds they encounter at the camp.She gets the support of her friends Jacob(Shawn Faqua), Amina(Damilare Kuku) and a host of others.
Some of the scences opens one's eyes to the sad reality of the experiences of the IDP occupants and survivors and one just hopes that this gets better as they deserve a better life and living atmosphere.One could feel the pain of the actors in some of the scences eg,the hospital scene,the attempted rape etc
What I didn't like about the movie:Though the movie is basically for advocacy,I felt there are some things which could have been done better for example the crowd at the campaign seems uninterested in what the politician was saying except for the main actors in the movie,one of the senators car also was being used without a plate number ,the Hausa accent of some of the actors was not consistent.I would have also loved to see how and what finally made the Politician succumb after several reaching out,we just saw that a medical facility was been opened which leaves us guessing.
Zahra The Movie major aim is to expose the problems and ills prevalent in IDPs and outside of it to an extent it was achieved.
Overall I rate the movie Okay.
It is directed by Chris Eneaji,story by Uduak Oguamaman &Vivian Chiji,produced by Emem Isong -Misodi
