'Mother
of George' is a vibrant, touching and universal movie that portrays a couple
navigating through the crevices of marital mishaps. The movie is produced by
Andrew Dosunmu, a New York based Nigerian film maker. The movie received the Cinematography Award
(U.S. Dramatic) at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival. The cast of the movie
include Bukky Ajayi and Tony Okungbowa . The movie is lavished with vibrant
colors, which include Ankara and adire fabrics.
The
movie is the perfect vehicle for Dosunmu, a former fashion photographer whose
images have appeared in a variety of international publications to showcase his
style. As a filmmaker, Dosunmu says he intends to bring the weight of the
African tradition to film-making. With bold, rich imagery that involves
frequent close-ups, Dosunmu puts the microscope on one ordinary family
with a universal story and the result is a beautiful work of art.
“Mother
of George” releases in theaters September 13.
