✨ OFFICIAL SELECTION – South African Premiere ✨
We are proud to announce that 3 Cold Dishes (2025) Nigeria, directed by Asurf Oluseyi, has been officially selected to be amongst the shortlist for the South African Independent Film Festival. 🎬
3 Cold Dishes tells the gripping story of Esosa (Nigeria), Fatouma (Senegal), and Giselle (Ivory Coast) — three women whose youth was stolen by a trafficking network spanning West Africa. Years later, scarred but unbroken, they reunite with one mission: to hunt down those who betrayed them and reclaim their dignity.
Shot across Nigeria, Benin, Côte d’Ivoire and Mauritania, the film blends raw realism with high-stakes action, exposing the human cost of trafficking while celebrating resilience and solidarity.
Executive Produced by Burna Boy, Bose Ogulu (Mama Burna), and Osas Ighodaro, 3 Cold Dishes is a groundbreaking collaboration of African talent in front of and behind the camera. With a diverse cast led by Osas Ighodaro, FAT Toure, Maud Guerard, Wale Ojo, and Bambadjan Bamba Bambadjan Bamba, the film unites Nollywood’s pulse with Francophone cinema’s artistry.
This is more than a film.
It is a Pan-African statement — a story of sisterhood, justice, and the fight for freedom, resonating with audiences worldwide. 🌍💪🏾
