The movie is based on the town of Oloibiri, where crude oil was first discovered in Nigeria. Two decades after the last drop of crude oil was drilled from Oloibiri, two of its sons, Timipre, and Gunpowder, are disenchanted with the exploitation of their resources by the oil companies. While Timipre expresses his disenchantment through lamentations and regret, and regret, the younger Gunpowder, is driven to violent extremes.
The first teaser of the movie was released on Thursday (April 23, 2015). Oloibiri will première across Nigerian and international cinemas from May 2015. It is also scheduled to be screened at the Cannes Film Festival; one of the biggest film festivals in the world on the 19th, 21st and 22nd of May, 2015.
