A biopic set between 1900-1950s in Western Nigeria, covers the life of Chief (Mrs) Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, (FRK) (Fela’s Mum) an enigmatic suffragette and activist who blazed a trail through pre-independence Nigeria. She dedicated her life to the struggle for women’s equal rights in Abeokuta and across the nation. FRK is a masterfully told historical epic about how one of the greatest heroines in Nigeria’s history stood strong against economic oppression and gender based marginalization, uniting the market women of Abeokuta towards a joint cause forcing HR Majesty the Alake of Egbaland, to abdicate his throne.
