“Hope” is another compelling short film from the joint efforts of Mount Zion Film Productions and True Talk with TED. This new collaboration feels like a vision from the Lord, particularly targeted at youths, singles and young adults navigating the tricky terrain of emotions, courtship, faith and marriage. I’m genuinely grateful for the consistent releaseContinue reading ““HOPE” REVIEW”

“I RECEIVED HIM” REVIEW
From the stables of Mount Zion Film Productions and True Talk with TED comes “I Received Him“. It is a short film that explores a familiar scenario in Christian circles: when someone “receives” a life partner from the Lord and decides to act on it – and that someone is a lady. What follows isContinue reading ““I RECEIVED HIM” REVIEW”
“JUST FOR THE STREET” REVIEW
Just for the Street has a nice opening that would settle any audience into a movie. Although this flow is disrupted right after with some choppy editing, the short film has bits and pieces of a cinematic atmosphere to it. The story centres on Taiwo and Kehinde, a set of twins from the same womb,Continue reading ““JUST FOR THE STREET” REVIEW”
“THE CRUISE” REVIEW
I am a huge fan of the short films written by Damilola Mike-Bamiloye in the 2010s, with A Minute More and A Hundred Thousand my personal favourites. Considering the fact that many brilliant features have since been the order of the day, it came to me as a surprise that The Cruise is a short.Continue reading ““THE CRUISE” REVIEW”
“A MILE FOR TEN” REVIEW
Impact Global Ministries have come a long way from their first production I saw – Winds of My Will (2022). There has since been a steady line of improvement in the production value. Their latest entry, A Mile for Ten, is a good film for teenagers and youths. Personally, I wish production outfits wouldContinue reading ““A MILE FOR TEN” REVIEW”
LUMIERE SERIES REVIEW:

The clips are essentially a dramatization of his sermons, which are themselves occasionally heard at intervals, giving the videos some context. They are therefore visual representations, allowing “theContinue reading “LUMIERE SERIES REVIEW:”
“LOST IN TRANSIT” REVIEW
Lost in Transit is a part of the Lumiere Series, which comprises short films from the Deeper Christian Life Ministries. The first few minutes of the movie were exciting for me because of the dynamic cinematography and editing that were in play even before a word was spoken. The music in those moments was alsoContinue reading ““LOST IN TRANSIT” REVIEW”
“SONS OF SCEVA” REVIEW
Hey folks! You’re welcome to this short film review. It’s one I’m really excited about: Sons of Sceva is an impressive short film that is based on the biblical story of its eponymous characters. The way Freedom Studios approached these ten verses of Scripture (Acts 19:11-20) is so creative that honestly, it can be developedContinue reading ““SONS OF SCEVA” REVIEW”
SHORTS:“THE LABOURER” REVIEW
Hey folks! You’re welcome to the review of the short film The Labourer. It’s a Father’s Courier Productions release that recognises itself as a short and doesn’t beat about the bush. Instead, it expresses its message in clear and succint illustrations. It stars Temidayo Ayodele, Festus Olalekan Dairo, Faith Dairo, Flora O’seyi Ayodele and FrancisContinue reading “SHORTS:“THE LABOURER” REVIEW”
