NOTES

Title from title frames

Seyi, a bright young Nigerian-American working on Wall Street, must navigate complicated family expectations, a turbulent romantic relationship, and a system of cultural complexities caused by class and race. With a dying father, a burgeoning romance with a white girlfriend, and dangerous new business opportunities, Seyi’s life is in a delicate balance. When his ambition drives Seyi to morally dubious waters, secrets threaten to erupt and shatter his world. Seyi must confront himself and decisions he has made, facing the crimes of the past in a desperate attempt to salvage the present. Nominated for the SXSW Grand Jury Award for Best Narrative Feature at the **SXSW Film Festival**. *"Writer-director Onah, himself a Nigerian-born artist, understands Seyi through and through. His storytelling is simple but brisk and coherent." - Glenn Kenny, **RogerEbert.com*** *"[THE PRICE shares] a piece of the immigrant experience that needs to be told ..." - Dan Gentile, **Austin Chronicle***
