Synopsis

Eniola Baba-Lola and Jordan Dante - two brilliant young Black graduates with first-class master’s degrees in business - should be on the fast track to six-figure salaries and global success. Instead, they're hitting closed doors at every turn, even from their best friend’s father, the powerful tycoon Sir John Fenton. With job rejections piling up, dreams of becoming footballers, barbers, or even rappers fizzle fast - especially after a sharp warning from Eniola’s no-nonsense mother. As the pressure mounts, Eniola discovers his girlfriend Monica is pregnant, while Jordan faces a family crisis in Jamaica, a brother veering towards gang life, and an expiring visa that could lead to deportation. With time running out, the friends take a bold leap - starting a business of their own. But with everything on the line, will their gamble pay off—or break them completely?

Synopsis

Based on Virginia Woolf’s funniest novel, VIRGINIA WOOLF'S NIGHT AND DAY is an un-romantic comedy about a passionate astronomer Katharine Hilbery who does everything she can to avoid romantic love and marriage. Fun and contemporary in tone, this refreshing film showcases an ensemble of humourous performances against the ravishing backdrop of London in 1910, advances in science and technology and crumbling Edwardian patriarchy. Virginia’s story is as relevant to today as it ever was: women balancing romantic love with careers!
