Director Statement

On the 20th of Oct, 2020 , the Endsars protest that has been going on for days turned sour after the protesters at the lekki toll gate were being fired at by legal armed men of the forces, there was the urge to time stamp this event because it was a real dark time for us, especially we youths.

While using the protest as the premise, I also had questions about humans always trying to make opportunities of every moment? and a question of what if greed is just an extreme passion to survive?

ETI'DO is a result of this philosophical questions.

the story was duly developed by myself and Iyebiye Adeitan.
