**************Trendy Africa Photography all night******************

Holding Hope is the story of Mrs. Badmus and her wayward son. It is the story which springs complexity out of simple plot. For Sidney to inherit his mother's wealth who is dying of cancer there is a hurdle he must cross and that hurdle isn't an easy one. The story was written by Uche Jombo, Emem Isong, and Uduak Emem Oguwamalam. With impressive cast such as Uche Jombo, Desmond Elliot, Nadia Buhari, Biola Williams, Ngozi Nwosu, Rukky Sanda and many others.

Speaking on the movie, Uche said they want to make people cry, laugh and perhaps pause and think at the same time. 'It's a movie that we intend and want people to see in the cinema, and be moved by it, cry about it, and at the same time, laugh. Really, life is too short, as there are things you can change in life, but there are also things you cannot change”.
