Trust, Colours and Chemistry: The Making, Marketing and Momentum of Call of My Life, Nollywood's Highest-Grossing 2026 Release Outside the Traditional December Window.
Written by me✍️Ideba Edu Ele
Sometimes, the best conversations about films happen in rooms where the people behind the magic pull back the curtain just enough for you to appreciate the work even more.
That's exactly what happened during an Exclusive Conversation with the Makers of Call of My Life. Moderated by Polygon founder Taiwo Adeyemi @adeyemiandsons, the session brought together director @DammyTwitch, producer @blessinguzzi , writer and lead actress @UzoamakaPower, and production designer Anita Ashiru.
By the end of it, one thing had become abundantly clear: the film's biggest strength isn't just its story; it's the remarkable chemistry of the people who brought it to life.
Naturally, the room couldn't ignore the moment everyone had been talking about.
That now viral kiss between Uzoamaka Power @UzoamakaPower and Andrew Yaw Bunting at @Johnnydrille concert had sent social media into detective mode. Was it an elaborate PR stunt? A calculated marketing rollout?
Uzoamaka couldn't help but laugh.
"There was no PR agency behind it. Andrew was simply indulging my shenanigans, and I thought people would enjoy seeing it." What many interpreted as a carefully orchestrated PR campaign was simply two people having fun, and perhaps that's exactly why it felt so authentic.
If there's one thing Call of My Life gets right, it's colours. Every frame was bursting with warmth and personality. According to the team, that visual identity wasn't accidental. Dammy Twitch's love for bold, bright and beautifully warm colour palettes shaped the film from the very beginning.
Production designer Anita Ashiru, whose background is largely in music videos, admitted she approached the project knowing that this was not a music shoot that could be wrapped up in a day or two. Film was a different rhythm, and she quickly found herself impressed by just how deliberate the creative process was.
Nothing was left to chance.
Every palette and every visual decision created a world that gave the illusion that love could be found in Lagos… I loved that line a little too much.
Uzoamaka reflected on the freedom she experienced throughout production. She described Call of My Life as one of the few projects where the producers and director trusted her creative instincts with the marketing of the film. She could shoot whatever she believed the story needed, hand everything over to the editor, and know her ideas would be embraced rather than shut down. This spoke volumes about the culture the team had built.
In fact, one of the most striking things about the conversation wasn't any single revelation; it was how effortlessly everyone bounced off one another. Stories flowed naturally, with one person beginning an explanation, and another effortlessly finishing it. There was laughter, gentle teasing and an unmistakable sense of mutual admiration. Meanwhile, I was quietly screaming inside: "Involve me na!"
Nobody seemed interested in taking sole credit as every answer circled back to teamwork. Perhaps that's why the film feels as cohesive as it does.
Producer Blessing Uzzi also offered a refreshing glimpse into the support the film received behind the scenes. She revealed that stars like Davido championed the project simply because they believed in it and in the people behind it. No pay-for-play arrangements, just genuine support for a story and the people telling it. She also shared that Chike had been cast long before any public controversy surrounded him, making his involvement a decision rooted in the film itself rather than the news cycle.
Blessing Uzzi also offered an honest glimpse into the business side of filmmaking. She admitted that she has never really been the kind of producer to go........continue below this tweet👇👇👇
