SYNOPSIS: “The story of Inale is a folklore told in Otukpo, Benue state. Inale is a tale about true love, betrayal, family, duty and tradition; the first Nigerian musical ever in celluloid. Shot in Los Angeles, California, USA and in the fruitful lands of Benue State, it centers on the life of the Princess of Otukpo, Inale (Caroline Chikezie) the “treasure” of the land, who found happiness and true love in the heart of Ode (Hakeem Kae Kasim).The film begins with a grandfather telling his granddaughter a tale he had heard from his many journeys to the great land of Nigeria, which would serve as her lullaby for the night. The story starts with Inale and Ode’s admission of love for each other and how tomorrow will be the first of many of their lives together after he wins the wrestling competition. Ode conquers all competitors of all shapes and sizes, and as he is about to claim his victory and the heart of his true love, the short (lived) merriment (is) obstructed by a masked stranger asking for a chance to compete against the about to be named (husband). Unknown to all, the stranger’s intrusion sets in motion events that neither Inale nor anyone in the land of Otukpo contemplated or foresaw. With her love for Ode and her kingdom put to the test Inale’s adventure begins . . .”
