Young people who live life on the fast lane take the spotlight in ‘Hotel Labamba,’ the newly directed movie by Nollywood director Biodun Stephen. The movie captures the shenanigans of young men and women who are known as slay queens and Yahoo boys due to their insatiable quest to always live in the spotlight.
At the media screening recently, Stephen revealed that the story of ‘Hotel Lambaba,’ started from a conversation with a friend about slay queens and Yahoo boys and expressed happiness to be part of the movie.
“My experiences shape the storyline of my movies, which is what makes them very relatable and exciting to watch,” she said.
Executive-produced by Laide Daramola, the film tells the story of the mysterious murder of a popular Instagram influencer. Her death set up a chain of events as the true killer is sought. The cast includes Lateef Adedimeji, Bimbo Ademoye, Bolaji Ogunmola, Blessing Jessica Obasi and Femi Adebayo. The film will be distributed by Cinemax in June.
