Cast: Sharon Ooja , Omowumi Dada , Ada Ameh , Omoni Oboli , Beverly Osu , Patrick Doyle , Blossom Chukwujekwu , Sambasa Nzeribe , Bukola Oladipupo , Daniel Effiong , Segun Arinze
Plot: A journalist goes undercover as a prostitute to expose but she only finds a world of exploited women and ruthless violence. Set in Nigeria, Oloture is the story of a young, naive Nigerian journalist who goes undercover to expose the shady underworld of human trafficking:(


My Movie Review: The movie is devastating portrait of misadventures in the world of human trafficking that's quite intimidating at first yet as it go on moving and relatable stories took place very effective performance and powerful in execution this one is really a diamond in the rough:) Oloture is not a kind of movie you usually see but if you monitor every new releases every month like me you may come across with this at the start of last October this worth your peak:0 This is really an excellent movie as it does not shy away from the realities of young black women in that country and poverty plays real big part why this happen and still happening now! Oloture is not just a film in some ways its a moment that reminds us to stay woke and make us think others sake you should know it isn’t for the faint of heart as it has moments that really shocking and the brutality is in high par so let this be a cautionary tale and consider being safe!

Movie News: The Good: Impressive cinematography. Given the movie’s theme it captures people and places in fitting surrealism so that the audience’s attention remains focused on the movie’s theme. There is no distracting glamour. Just gritty, sweaty and hard-hitting unglazed reality. Sharon Ooja impresses as the titular protagonist, an undercover journalist posing as a prostitute to investigate a sex trafficking cartel. Omoni Oboli also impresses as the Sex traffic Madam complete with a scowling attitude albeit almost ruined by her (and the movie’s) off-putting obsession with cigarettes. The Bad: The story was basic and uncomplicated such that it questions why it needed an undercover journalist investigating a sex traffic cartel to drive the storyline. Then, there was the implausible hint at a possible romance between Oloture and her editor which came off as rather lame. The Ugly: That scene of Patrick Doyle’s Sir Philip room raping a drugged Oloture, hands down, deserves to be AMVCA for Ugly Sex Face of the year:0
