The story
Bolu, a new mother, is drowning in postpartum darkness. With each passing day, vivid hallucinations pull her deeper, pushing her to the edge. Dismissed by doctors, silenced by stigma, and spiraling alone, she and her baby teeter on the brink of danger. As her husband and mother fight to save her, Out in the Darkness exposes the raw, unspoken battles of maternal mental illness in Nigeria—a gripping yet hopeful call for awareness, support, and the resilience of women.

One person, one score. We average valid audience ratings: below 4 is Bland, 4 to below 8 is Spicy, and 8–10 is SuperSpicy. A Community Verdict needs 10 distinct raters. Scores are shown to one decimal without rounding up; verdicts update as ratings change. Review likes and dislikes do not affect the score.
