Hmm
Not to be a perfectionist but how did that movie went from all those intense and romantic encounters to such tragic ending? Also, some lingo and sexual act in that movie wouldn't be available in the 1980s of Nigeria.
The acting? 8/10
The story? Not to my taste.
With the title and the synopsis that I read on Netflix, I was prepared for an interesting depiction of the humble lifestyle of a farmer's bride in the 80s.
