TOPE TEDELA, KIKI OMEILI IN "THE HAPPYNESS LIMITED": AN IMOH UMOREN FILM

"Right from scripting to filming, 'The Happyness Limited' took 2 and a half years to make. The scripting process underwent series of consistent restructuring for close to 15 months and on the course of which the project was pushed further, bothering on issues of location et al, but was eventually finished in March 2016".

SYNOPSIS: 
The Happyness Limited is a film about a man Gregory Ojefua played by Tope Tedela who loses everything in a fire and is scarred. His badly burnt child needs a surgery and Gregory does all he can to raise money for her. He is seriously hampered as people will not hire him because he is deformed. He eventually finds work as a party mascot for children. Hoping this was a ray of sunlight but his life takes another turn when he falls in love with his prostitute neighbour Agnes (played by Kiki Omeili) and forms an unlikely bond with her daughter Mandu(Played by Miriam Kayode).

The Happyness Limited is a feature film by Imoh Umoren which follows the life of Gregory Ameh played by AMVCA winner Tope Tedela who loses everything in a fire and is trying reclaim his life. It was filmed on location in Lagos and Abeokuta and an intensive two-year planning period. The film also stars Kiki Omeili, Gregory Ojefua, Kingsley Nwachukwu, Duke Elvis, Harry Dorgu. It's Imoh Umoren's third feature after the critically-acclaimed Lemon Green (2009) and the TV movie Have A Nice Day (2013). 
The Happyness Limited is set to go on a festival run to 27 film festivals.
