PG

In Lionheart (2018), Adaeze, a determined and stylish young woman, is thrust into the spotlight when her father’s transport business faces a crisis. With the support of her strong, close-knit family, and despite sexist challenges, she battles against tough odds to save the company.

Directed by Genevieve Nnaji in her debut, the film weaves a heartwarming tale of ambition, unity, and resilience. Set in Enugu, it breaks from typical Nollywood norms, offering a refreshing look at gender equality and the importance of family. Featuring a stellar cast, including Nkem Owoh, Pete Edochie, and Onyeka Onwenu, Lionheart is a delightful, empowering story.

The film is screening as part of International Women’s Day 2025.
