According to him, Ipele, a gripping thriller, promises to captivate audiences with its intense storyline and stellar performances from a star-studded cast.
“Ipele, which was shot in Lagos, Nigeria, tells the compelling story of a reckless young man who, after committing a grievous crime by raping a young girl, later transforms his life by becoming a Pastor.
“However, as he attempts to move forward, the ghosts of his past resurface, threatening to confuse his new-found path and challenge his journey toward redemption.
“The past that had resurfaced left him shattered, reducing him to a shadow of himself with everyone casting aspersions on his new-found life,” Ayeni explained.
He added that with its intricate web of deceit, friendship and redemption, Ipéle explored deep moral questions about guilt, forgiveness and the inescapable consequences of one’s actions.
