Movie enthusiast must get ready for a cinematic experience like no other, as Ben Owusu's film, 'The Storm', hits the big screens at Silverbird Cinemas this September.
Movie devotees are certainly in for a good treat, with the premiere scheduled for Accra on Saturday, September 21, 2024, at Silverbird Cinemas and in Kumasi on Sunday, September 22, 2024, at the Royal View Cinema, located inside SG Mall.
The Storm features prominent actors such as Ama K. Abebrese, Adjetey Anang, Fiifi Coleman, Samini, Salma Mumin, Edward Agyekum Kuffuor, Edinam Atatsi and Luckie Lawson among others.
In the gripping movie, "The Storm", the city of Accra is plagued by a surge in criminal activity, with gangsters wreaking havoc on the community. Against this backdrop of murder, kidnapping, and corruption, a few courageous individuals dare to fight back.
Detectives Danso (Adjetey Anang) and Lynn (Ama K. Abebrese) are the only honest members of the law enforcement team, determined to bring justice to the city. Meanwhile, social advocate Milly (Luckie Lawson) takes on a crucial role in protecting young people from the clutches of crime.
However, their lives are forever changed when a teenage boy is brutally murdered, and three young women, including Milly's niece, are kidnapped and killed. This sparks a dramatic shift in the narrative, as Danso and Milly join forces to combat crime and corruption head-on.
As Detective Danso works tirelessly to uncover the truth behind the teenager's death, he is aided by Detective Lynn and often clashes with the Deputy Superintendent of Police, played by Edinam Atatsi.
Meanwhile, Milly's advocacy work gains momentum, and she becomes a celebrity, using her platform to demand government action against criminals. Her campaign eventually puts her at odds with the country's President, Edward Agyekum Kufuor.
As Milly's crusade against crime and corruption reaches a boiling point, she finds herself face-to-face with President Edward Kufuor in a tense, politically charged encounter.
Will she emerge unscathed from this pivotal meeting, or will the treacherous landscape of politics silence her voice?
Audiences will be on the edge of their seats as they await the answer to this question when the movie premieres in December.
