The visionary producer and prolific Director & Storyteller Babatunde Agunloye has returned with another captivating story in Realm 2 produced by Great and Mighty Things Inc.
This is Canada’s first instance of its type. Using a broadcaster called Fibe TV1 to bring this production to Canadians, no other Nigerian-born Canadian filmmaker has ever had a mostly black cast production on Canadian television for Canadian audiences.
Basic plot-wise, the five-part episode tells the story.
“REALM 2” is an artistically well-made work. Babatunde Agunloye currently favours specific story genres, and the authors do a good job of marketing them. More importantly, the implementation is done quite well, particularly in terms of technical aspects.
