Contention
English. Directed by Uduak-Obong Patrick.
Blood means nothing to the Salami-Bangura siblings, what they desire is power and they would gladly kill each other to get it. The opportunity presents itself upon the death of their parents, leaving the Salami-Bangura empire up for grabs. When the children come together for the first time in years to plan the funeral of their parents, betrayals and ulterior motives become order in their household.
