As we celebrate women’s week, I want to specially celebrate these beautiful ladies who were open and vulnerable enough to share their stories with me on The Way We Are documentary. @esther_uwagwu @sayo_thebeloved @wemspearl @iamofficial_debbie_  Thank You Ladies.

When we premiered The Way We Are at the Lagos Fringe Festival, one of the audience mentioned being surprised that the ladies in the documentary had that kind of experience, considering how beautiful they all look. I looked at her, smiled at her and told her, “That’s the thing with beauty standards. It’s not that you are not beautiful. It’s just the society and people projecting what they think beauty should look like to you, telling you how you should look and most times, being harsh and demeaning with their comments, especially in this time and age of social media.”

Earlier in the year, I teamed up with my friend @iamizuoba to tell a story dear to my heart.

I used to work in an environment where I was constantly told “what to look like” and “what to dress like”. I remember being shouted at for not wearing makeup and for rocking my natural hair. It was a very confusing period and even though no harm was meant, my self esteem was greatly affected by this experience. This experience gave birth to this documentary, “The Way We Are”. It is my hope that every woman who sees The Way We Are feels empowered and confident in how they look, in The Way They Are.

A special shout out to the amazing ladies who shared their stories with me @red_cruise @aiirstar_uwagwu @wemspearl @iamofficial_debbie_ 

@i_kosie Thank you so much for believing in the vision and for believing in the story the very first time I told you.

@camaradindu Thank You Amara for believing in this story, sacrificing your time and capturing it so flawlessly.

@herald.okoli Thank you for creating a beautiful poster design for us and for bringing Emmanuel’s vision to life. 

@ovijazz Thank you so much for taking time out to create a beautiful score for our story.

@_iamgeorgeowen @redistudios_ Thank you for telling our story through your photography and for coming on board on a short notice.

@amooseye and @filmloverstudios Thank you guys for coming on set to help out on a short notice.

@iamizuoba 🥺🥺 Every filmmaker should have you as a friend. Thank you for directing and producing with me. Thanks for believing in the story and for “carrying it on your head”. 

We got our first festival nomination @lagosfringe last month and we can’t wait to show it at the festival while we look forward to more festival nominations. 

The Way We Are is coming in 2024! ☺️💃🏽
