Celebs step out to celebrate the Dora Akunyili-inspired movie, A Place In The Stars
This entirely private affair is part of a series of
activities leading up to the November 2014 premiere of the movie, and was awash
with VIP guests, including the crème de la crème of the Lagos business
community.
Directed and produced by the celebrated film maker, Steve Gukas, A Place in the
Stars is a riveting voyage into the dark under-world of fake drugs trafficking
and of the harrowing consequences to the most vulnerable members of society.
Set in 2006 Nigeria, A Place in the Stars tells the story of Kim Dakim (Gideon Okeke), a young lawyer with a case and a client that leave him professionally conflicted. Kim is in possession of information that could save scores, if he would only pass it on. Faced with the deathly consequences of crossing 'industry' kingpins, including the toughest of them all, Diokpa Okonwo (Segun Arinze); and with millions to earn if he would only turn a blind eye, Kim battles conscience and professional responsibility as he determines which way to turn.
Also starring in the movie are Dejumo Lewis, Yemi Blaq, Femi Branch, Matilda Obaseki, Julian Mcdowell, Armajit Deu and Amaka Mgbor.
From the story treatment to screenplay, costume to production design, A Place in the Stars, together with it's crop of A-list cast, is in a class of its own - for movie magical experience.
The
movie will be out in cinemas across Nigeria on the 14th of November
2014.

Iran, 5+1 Ministerial Meeting Could be Held in November: Russian Deputy Foreign Minister
"A ministerial meeting is possible. But this will mean that the solution is near. Alternatively, if this is not achieved, complications are possible, like it happened last year, when ministers were unable to eliminate the problems on the first try," Ryabkov said Tuesday in an interview with RIA Novosti.
Ministerial talks are unlikely to take place this month, but could be held in November, Ryabkov said, answering a question about whether the foreign ministers of Iran and the 5+1 group would meet before November 24, the deadline for reaching a final agreement on Iran's nuclear program.
Ministerial talks are unlikely to take place this month, but could be held in November, Ryabkov said, answering a question about whether the foreign ministers of Iran and the 5+1 group would meet before November 24, the deadline for reaching a final agreement on Iran's nuclear program.
The previous round of negotiations took place in September in New York between Iran and the P5+1 group, which includes Russia, China, the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Germany, but did not yield any results as the parties failed to agree on any of the key issues. The next meeting is to be held in Vienna on October 16.
Iran and the P5+1 group initially agreed to reach a long-term nuclear agreement by July 2014 during a meeting in November 2013. The deadline was later moved to November 24, 2014.
The West has been accusing Tehran of developing nuclear weapons under the guise of a civilian nuclear program — claims repeatedly denied by Iranian authorities.
