“No Way Through,” a gripping Nigerian crime thriller by Inkblot Productions is now showing exclusively on Amazon Prime Video worldwide.
Featuring a stellar cast of Nollywood legends, including Funke Akindele, Chidi Mokeme, Chioma Chukwuka, Ikechukwu, Nengi Adoki, Seun Ajayi, Jnr Pope, Eso Dike, Roberta Oroma, and Sheggz Olusemo, the film promises to captivate audiences with its tale of survival amid the grit and hustle mentality of Lagos and other dynamic cities globally.
Directed by Inkblot CEO Chinaza Onuzo, who also penned the screenplay, “No Way Through” explores the sacrifices made for family and the risks taken in the pursuit of freedom. Following the journey of Jolade Okeniyi, a single mother making ends meet as a driver for the local drug cartel, the story takes a twist when she becomes an informant to avoid jail for herself and her daughter. Yet, obtaining crucial information puts them at the mercy of the ruthless cartel’s deadly consequences.
Chinaza Onuzo, expressing his enthusiasm for the project, shared, “I loved making No Way Through because it was an opportunity to explore the lengths people will go to for the people they love. In the film, we see this through the lens of a mother’s love for her daughter.”
Commending the cast, especially Funke Akindele, Chidi Mokeme, and Chioma Chukwuka, for their outstanding performances, Onuzo extended gratitude to partners Film One Studios and acknowledged Amazon Prime Video for launching the film globally.
Inkblot’s commitment to storytelling excellence and execution is evident in their recent successes, including the rom com “Big Love” and the gripping thriller “A Weekend to Forget,” which recently completed its cinematic run, leaving an indelible mark on audiences.
