Chiemeka Osuagwu is a seasoned screenwriter hailing from Nigeria and has worked on some of the most successful Television Programs and Films in Africa. As a first-time Director, he intends to present his world in its rawest of forms and tell unapologetically Nigerian stories, grounded in universal base emotions.
With Samaria, I looked to show the realities of young people trying to find their way in the harsh city of Lagos. Above all else, it is a reflection of what we all see and experience in Lagos and in Nigeria.
