A vibrant debut from director Olive Nwosu, which won the Acting Ensemble award at Sundance Film Festival for its all-female main cast. Lady works as one of the city’s few women cab drivers in the sleepless city of Lagos.

Saving her wages, Lady longs to leave for a new life, but is unexpectedly drawn into night journeys, chaos and self-discovery with her former childhood friend, Pinky, now a sex worker. What begins as judgement develops into unexpected sisterhood.
