The well acclaimed film, ‘Chameleon’, produced and written, by Nigerian film maker who lives in Luxembourg, David Danisa, will premiere in cinemas across Nigeria in August.
Danisa told media men at a press conference in Lagos on Friday that after two years of shooting the film in Luxembourg, ‘Chameleon’ will hit the cinemas this month.
According to him, the film was shot at various locations in different countries and cities including Nigeria, Germany Luxembourg, Brussels and Paris. He explained that the film can be used as a political tool in a developmental way to help the Nigerian oil sector.
“Chameleon” tells the story of two antagonistic and ruthless characters, one originating from Luxembourg and the other, a Nigerian spy, on an important mission. Lucio won’t be prevented from achieving his strategic business goals in Africa. How does this relate to Muda’s mission in Europe? Muda is not exactly the person he was initially presented as. He is in search of something else. What? Why is he in Europe, and what brings him to Luxembourg? These are some of the questions the movie seeks to provide answers to.
The movie, according to Danisa, is borne out of the need to expose the illegalities and criminal activities of a ruthless network of individuals spread across different continents.
On his preparedness to expectations from cabals, who might find the movie offensive, Danisa dropped, “Not at all, I don’t think the movie should offend anyone, however, what I have done is to re-awake our collective aspirations as a people on the parts of the people, the citizens, the governments and agencies responsible.”
His experience as an investigative journalist on Energy desk in Nigeria, before he relocated to Luxembourg, influenced the script.
“Chameleon” stars Danisa, who plays the lead role, Michael Fourage, Carlos Ferreira, Juliana Alves Rosa, Yolanda Trono and Mendaly Ries amongst several others.
