Watch the trailer for C. J. Obasi’s crime thriller, ‘O-Town’ starring Kalu Ikeagwu

Kalu Ikeagwu and Pat Utomi star in this crime thriller, O-Town, written and directed by C. J. Obasi.

O-Town has already won two awards; an AMAA Achievement in Soundtrack win and another for Best Director at the Lake City International Film Festival, both in 2016.

‘The film is set in a lightly fictionalized version of Owerri ruled over by a sadistic gangster,’ said Ikeagwu who plays The Chairman.

Utomi on his part said, ‘The story is told from the viewpoint of an omnipresent, anonymous filmmaker and it follows the travails of Peace.’

Obasi described the film as a ‘crime-gangster thriller.’

He added, ‘It’s a semi-autobiographical tale because it draws from some of the crime stories I knew and heard; growing up in a small town called Owerri in Imo State.

‘It’s also my exploration into genre film-making, where I explore basically my love for film.’
