CGiii Comment

The acting and lighting are equally horrific - and that is not solely down to the thoroughly amateur production values and plastic script.

Nwandu is to blame - neither a writer nor a director with any trace of talent.

The last speech delivered will have you pissing your pants and screaming how the fuck did this get any funding - ATROCIOUS.

One of the worst - simply because it is so loaded with pretension and self-indulgence - no, make that delusion.

The(ir) Blurb...

Raymond and Tagbo met when they were eight. Although from radically different worlds - Raymond/Rag is from a single parent West Indian home, while Tagbo/Tag is the only son of middle class Nigerian parents - they remain inseparable until the cusp of their teens, Social Services take Rag from London. Ten years later, Rag returns to find Tag. They still want to be together. But now twenty-three, their need has shifted into something more urgent and consuming. Other things have changed too. Tag is just finishing law school and discovering how hard it is to find a position. Tag also has a white girlfriend, and since her impressive credentials aren't even good enough for Tag's father, Rag doesn't stand a chance. Rag sees even less room for himself in Tag's life when Tag's friend Olisa flies into London. Young, rich and shady, Rag knows Olisa is trouble. When Rag and Tag are invited to Nigeria for Olisa's Chieftaincy ceremony, Rag is determined to save Tag from his machinations.
