Written and produced by Tosin Otudeko, she describes the movie as an emotional drama in an exclusive with Shockng. She also revealed having the story idea over 11 years ago but didn’t pursue it until now when she considered the storyline timely and relevant.
Speaking on her journey to creating the movie script, Otudeko narrates, “I worked with a script mentor who reviewed the initial drafts quite early on in the process and after speaking with the director we carried on the journey for about two years of reviewing the script, developing and aligning our visions to what we have today”.
Over The Bridge addresses the theme of mental health issues in the corporate world in Lagos in particular as well as the pressure corporate workers face from demands.
