About

In Lagos, a female cab driver is drawn into the nightlife circle of her returning childhood friend, now a sex worker.

Lady, played by Jessica Gabriel's Ujah, is one of the few female cab drivers in Lagos, Nigeria. She gets through her work by staying focused and tough while saving money to try to move. Her world changes when Pinky, a childhood friend she lost touch with who now works as a sex worker, returns unexpectedly. Pinky is played by Amanda Oruh.

Lady is drawn reluctantly into Pinky's circle and becomes the driver for a group of women who navigate Lagos nightlife. She initially judges the group.
