Out of the ruins: film inspired by slum clearance in Nigeria opens in Toronto
Briefly

"The destruction led to protests and violence, but halfway through 2017, despite a court order demanding that the government compensate those affected and halt evictions, Otodo-Gbame had been mostly reduced to rubble."
"We thought that a film would explain the situation better [than documentaries made about the settlement's destruction], says Tina Edukpo, who grew up in Otodo-Gbame."
"The film follows Jawu, a struggling mother, before and after she discovers a bag of cash deposited by a corrupt politician in Agboje."
