Isoken’ which first premiered in London last month and over two weeks ago in Lagos, is one movie that explores the cultural differences and racial sterotypes that defines families in a touching dramatic way. The movie which is currently being shown in cinemas across the county has been receiving great reviews across board. It is about the Osayande family and their worries that trails Isoken (Dakore Akande). With a supposedly perfect life; beautiful and successful, she remains unmarried at 34 in a culture obsessed with marriage and this seems a serious cause for concern for her family. Things come to a head at her youngest sister’s wedding when her overbearing mother thrusts her into an orchestrated matchmaking with Osaze (Joseph Benjamin) from her tribe. Handsome, successful with a good pedigree, Isoken is unimpressed considering that he is just the perfect husband material. However, in an unexpected turn of events, Isoken meets Kevin (Marc Rhys), a Caucasian, with whom she falls in love with and with whom she wants to spend the rest of her life with.
