Jos, Nigeria: In a cinematic venture set to challenge deep-seated tribal stereotypes, Nass Media World & Happily Together Studios have announced the release of their first official movie, “The Bridge.”
This poignant love story delves into the struggles of intertribal romance against a backdrop of past trauma and cultural resistance.
The film follows Haruna, a young Northern man, and Damilola, a Yoruba woman, whose love defies societal and familial opposition.
Damilola’s mother, still reeling from the loss of her husband during a Northern crisis, is determined to prevent her daughter from marrying a Northerner.
Meanwhile, Haruna’s parents, haunted by a painful family history where his aunt disappeared after marrying a Yoruba man, also reject the relationship.
Yet, in the face of emotional and cultural barriers, the couple’s unwavering commitment and faith guide their families toward acceptance, proving that love transcends ethnicity.
The movie’s official trailer will be released tomorrow, Friday, January 31, at 5 PM, with the full feature set to premiere on February 7, 2025.
