9. '76

Six years after the civil war, a young officer from the
middle belt got entangled in a romantic relationship
with a young lady from the southeastern part of Nigeria.
Their budding romance was almost ruptured with the
daunting task of military posting. Now heavily pregnant,
her world came crumbling when news of her husband’s
involvement in a botched coup attempt hit the
headlines.
’76 celebrates the quality of the African Woman by
exploring the usually invincible pain of a soldiers’ wife:
it highlights the enduring Nigerian cultural values of
courage, resilience, patience, loyalty, faith and family. It
is visually pure, emotionally engaging and amorously
therapeutic.
