The highly

action movie ever in Africa will be opened to all cinema lovers this Friday 19th
May, 2017.
The movie is the
latest movie from the self-taught and award winning Producer and Director Eric
Aghimien.
It follows the story of Kome, a homeless teenage mother, who in a bid
to cater and secure a good life for her son Peter sought refuge in the arms of
a drug kingpin Tuvi. The kingpin ushers her into the world of prostitution and
drug trafficking. However, when faced with a serious dilemma and the sudden

Ayonete, and Shola Thompson-Adewale.
When asked about
the movie, the producer and director, Eric Aghimien stated “Crafting a great
action film in Nigeria is no child’s play. Every character in the movie was
carefully built and the each of the cast member portrayed their characters
well. We paid attention to details every step of the way; in performance, in
choreography, in visual effect, in special effect, everything. It is exciting
for me and for everyone involved in this movie that people will finally get to
see this work. I promise it will not only be worth their time but also their
money”.
Slow Country, though
an action thriller is a movie that will interest not only lovers of action
movies, but also lovers of comedy and drama.
