Set in Nigeria, Oloture is the story of a young, naive Nigerian journalist who goes undercover to expose the shady underworld of human trafficking. Unused to this brutal environment, crawling with ruthless traders and pimps, Oloture finds warmth and friendship with Blessing, Linda and Beauty, the prostitutes she lives with. However, she gets drawn into their lifestyle and finds it difficult to cope. In her quest to uncover the truth, she pays the ultimate price - one that takes her to the verge of no return.
The movie was quite painful to watch and seemed to have been created mainly to shake the viewers with shock factors. The script is hollow and the acting over-the-top. The story loosely makes sense and attempts to tug at your heart strings. Oh! look how these girls are abused by pimps and politicians. They want to escape, but even then there is a price to pay. But the execution is so sloppy, you wish the movie was no longer than a trailer. The ending is downright comical and not worth waiting until.
