Come Saturday, March 17, 2012, The Expo hall of the Eko Hotels and Suites will play host to the premiere of the much awaited film Phone Swap from Kunle Afolayan.
The film which parades stars like Joke Silva, Chika Okpala, Nse Ikpe-Etim, Wale Ojo among others is expected to be shown to a live and remote audience of over 20,000. Like other Afolayan projects, PS will not immediately be available for home entertainment; instead, it will show at cinemas around the world before eventually being released on DVD.
It is the first time a movie premiere will hold at the extra-expensive Expo hall of Eko Hotel and Suites – and it’s no surprise Afolayan is breaking the jinx: Phone Swap is heavily supported by Globacom (the telecoms company which has Kunle Afolayan as one of its brand ambassadors) and Blackberry.
Produced by Golden Effects and directed by Afolayan, the film details the story of two individuals from two different backgrounds who began a new phase in their lives after having their phones mixed up.
Afolayan’s earlier self-directed projects are the critically-acclaimed ‘Irapada’ and ‘Figurine’.
