The cultural interplay (especially the linguistic synergy between British English and Yoruba), the struggles that trail growth in a multiplex of roofs, environment and school, the plot, the characterisation, the conflict, and a list of other elements that characterise this movie kept me hooked till the end of the watch. A very iconic representation of a bildungsromanic life of a Nigerian boy's struggle to find his identity on a foreign soil. Kudos to the team, especially the director, Shola Amoo. I highly recommend it: for non-Nigerians, to travel into the deictic centre of foreign cultures; and for a Nigerian, to see how the Nigerian idiocyncracies look like in a distal clime of England.
