Commenting on her role in the movie, Tiwa said, “This project was a complete labor of love that has been a dream of mine for a number of years. Performing as Aisha allowed me to be totally vulnerable and pushed me to express myself in a way that I’ve never done before. It was an honor to share my debut as an actress in a leading role with Meji while filming on the African continent with a cast and crew that I have immense admiration for and respect for. I’m excited for the world to see this film.”
