So ... I'm kinda sitting here chuckling at the fact that you submitted a two hour plus movie to hubski with a title in all caps and no explanation. I don't think you expect any of us to watch it (although I'm tempted, just for that reason) because it's so long. Maybe it's a case of using hubski as an archive.

Anyway, what's it about?

It's a documentary about Nigeria. It's presented in an interesting manner with lots of footage of the various military dictators and other aspects of Nigerian life, great music edits.

It's the most populous nation in Africa and it'd be a continental superpower if it could get it's shit together. Found it enjoyable from start to finish.

It's long, didn't write some "OMG you must watch best documentary" cause fuck it, if anyone at all interested in Nigeria would give it a chance and if not they probably don't want to dump 2.5 hours into it.

Okay. I have an aversion to documentaries. But Nigeria is a very unusual country, like you say.

Tell me what you thought I'd you give it a try, It doesn't feel like a run if the mill documentary to me, something a little off beat and enjoyable about It's flow.
