Eight people, four men and four women wake up in a dark room. They are dressed in their underwear and apart from knowing their names; they have no memories of who they are, where they are and why they are there. There is confusion and mutual suspicion as they come to terms with their predicament. When an armed man comes into the room and picks them out, one after the other, they struggle to remember, believing that in their memories lies a way to escape.

Shot in scenic locations across Lagos and Ibadan, the movie “Tatu” is a contemporary take on the classic African epic adventure story, a fast-paced action drama centered around the conflict arising from a mother’s quest to have a child and all the complications that followed.
