Fresh off the heels of the blockbuster Quam’s Money and family favorite DOD: Day of Destiny, Inkblot Productions is set to release its highly anticipated first film of 2021 the coming-of-age comedy-drama ‘Charge and Bail’
With fourteen films released in the last six years, Inkblot Productions is deeply woven into the fabric of Nollywood.
Releasing such cultural touchstones as The Wedding Party Series, The Arbitration, The Set Up, and the New Money Series, Inkblot continues to be at the cutting edge of Nigerian cinema.
Inkblot is focused on bringing great Nigerian stories to our audiences and is working with amazing visionary storytellers to do so.
Inkblot has tapped Uyoyou Adia (writer of Nneka the Pretty Serpent and Ghost and The Tout Too) to direct its latest film Charge and Bail which stars Zainab Balogun as Boma, a high-flying lawyer from the upper class who finds herself posted to a Charge and Bail law firm run by Stan Nze’s Dotun and his brother Wole played by Femi Adebayo during her NYSC Service Year. A culture clash ensues between the haves and the have nots as Boma tries to navigate the new world.
