A Mustard Seed A film by Femi Oladigbolu Now on BBC iPlayer www.bbc.co.uk/ipl.../episo... And on the big screen at Manchester Film Festival, March 26
A short film in which I play one of the leads is being screened at the Manchester Film Festival on March 26. Check out A Mustard Seed, directed by Femi Oladigbolu. manchesterfilmfestival.app/EventDetails... #shortfilm #amustardseed #manchesterfilmfest
Filmed summer 2024, this independent feature will have its 2nd-ever screening in California in March. I fear the US may be a no-go destination for me personally, but I'll try.
