Directed by Evans Osigwe, Zero Deal shows the real life experience of many Africans who come to Europe with desires of having a good life but end up in pains and agonies. These challenges force them into doing what they would never do in normal circumstances.

Zero Deal is produced by Prince Ogugua Igwe, a Nigerian actor, scriptwriter and producer based in Germany.

Jennifer plays Jane in the movie. This is a young African girl who comes to Europe after being deceived by travelling agents that she’ll easily live a good life here. The agents take so much money from her in order to process her visa.

“Jane is a very hard working girl that had to face some challenges like the part where she went with her German boyfriend to visit his mother and something happened,” Jennifer says.

She is happy that she had a chance of working on this movie. Jennifer recalls how lovely it was working with the team. “In fact we were like family. It was a privilege working with the producer Prince Ogugua Igwe, he is a man of his words,” she says.

She is encouraging all lovers of African movies to go and watch Zero Deal. “It is a must watch movie, so don’t miss it,” she stresses.

The movie will be premiered in Freiburg, Germany on 24th September 2016.
