Kunle Afolayan, the multiple award-winning Nigerian filmmaker, has come through with the official trailer for ‘Swallow’, his latest project, ahead of its October 1 premiere on Netflix.

The less than three-minute footage focuses on Tolani Ajao (Eniola ‘Niyola’ Akinbo), a naive secretary who, after a series of career failures, considers her roommate’s offer to work as a drug mule in mid-1980s Lagos.

The movie features movie stars such as Ijeoma Grace Agu (Rose), Deyemi Okanlanwon (Sanwo), Eniola Badmus (Mrs Durojaiye), Chioma Akpotha (Mama Chidi), Kevin Ikeduba (OC), Offiong Anthony Edet (Johnny), and Olusegun Remi (Mr Salako).

‘Swallow’ is a movie adaptation of a novel by Seffi Atta, the Nigerian-American author, playwright and screenwriter.

Speaking on the project, Kunle described Atta’s best-selling novel as the first from which he will be producing a film.
