A star-studded film, ‘Shadow Parties’, has made it to the second position on Netflix, which is a global streaming platform, giving access to both local and international audiences to view as many times as possible and form opinions about the literary work.
‘Shadow Parties’ was shot across major South-West cities of Lagos, Ibadan, Erin-Ijesha, Akure and Ekiti.
Nollywood stars, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, Toyin Aimakhu, Sola Sobowale and two Hollywood stars played very significant roles in this much-talked-about and highly rated flick.
Omotola, in the professionally scripted movie, which was sponsored by Media Concept International Studio, is the lead actress alongside actor Yemi Blaq and Nollywood multi-talented actress, Sola Sobowale.
The Hollywood actor in the production includes Magdalena Korpas, Poland-born /Paris-based stage actress, as well as producer Lucien Morgan who is known for producing; An American Wolf in London (1981), Theft Unexpected (2013) and Return of the Don (2016) among others.
‘Shadow Parties’ is essentially about a communal clash in which Aremu (Ken Erics) from Aje, a town that neighbours Iludun, where his wife, Arike (Toyin Abraham) was born, well-known for fratricidal wars, which have claimed the lives of Arike’s parents.
The two towns are thrown into war after the kinsmen of Aremu decide to burn his wife and child alive claiming she is an enemy which then triggers reprisal attacks from the Iluduns led by Lowo (Yemi Blaq), Arike’s brother.
The movie, which was said to have gulped millions of naira, equally featured veterans like Segun Arinze, Jibola Dabo, Prince Jide Kosoko, Hafiz Oyetoro, Saheed Balogun, Sola Kosoko, Rotimi Salami, and others.
The movie speaks to societal woes and also offers frontal solutions to them while also reprimanding and shaming purveyors, beneficiaries and sponsors of violent clashes.

Amodu acknowledged that it has a positive boost to the Nollywood production data.
