America-based Nigerian actor now filmmaker, Nnamdi Kanaga, has released the intriguing and thought-provoking trailer to his forthcoming debut drama.
The movie which is set in America sees the filmmaker cover all stops to present a new conversation-starter through film. The movie is titled “Talisman”.
Written and directed by Nnamdi Kanaga himself, with production work by Isreal Mckinney Scott, “Talisman” revolves around Ukie who is entangled in an obscure cobweb of motherly love woven by his adoptive mother, Amanda. A provocative encounter forces him into a shocking realization of his true identity, one that leads to an even more shocking end.
Aptly presented from an Afrocentric perspective, the movie tackles adoption, child abuse and the mystery of cultural identity and hopes to open a series of avoidable yet important conversations.
The movie stars Elijah J. Fisher, Lorilyn Wubben, Nnamdi Kanaga, Luke Minton and Edeh Chinyere.
