Two lovers, Tolu and Nnamdi, opt out of The Department and get married. They’ve broken the rule, one which the department has refused to ignore. The pressure, intrigues, blackmail from the group, soon tests their love for each other.
The movie parades a blend of established and talented fast rising young stars; Desmond Elliot (When Love Happens), Majid Michel (Being Mrs Elliot),OsasIghodaro (Ex Ms Black USA, Tinsel),JideKosoko (Last Flight to Abuja), O.C. Ukeje (Half Of A Yellow Sun,When love happens), Kenneth Okolie (EX Mr Nigeria, Mrs Somebody),SeunAkindele (Dazzling Mirage) and SomkeleIyamah (Ex face of Visafone, Gidi Up web series).
