Trailer Review for “Safari”

Published

on

When the trailer for Safari dropped, it immediately set social media buzzing. Directed by Obi Emelonye and fronted by Osas Ighodaro, the film promises an emotional and unpredictable journey; part thriller, part moral drama, set against Kenya’s vivid landscapes. The movie is scheduled for release on November 9, 2025, and anticipation is already building across Africa’s film circles.

Ighodaro plays the wife of a Nigerian politician who seems to have it all: luxury, power, and influence, yet she feels trapped in her own life. A trip to Kenya offers the illusion of freedom, but that calm doesn’t last. When a British tourist is found dead and a local man she has befriended becomes the prime suspect, her escape turns into a dangerous web of secrets and suspicion.

From its opening moments, the trailer pulls viewers in. Kenya looks stunning but never sanitized. The camera lingers on sunlit beaches, bustling markets, and tense silences between characters. Every scene feels loaded, not with melodrama but with the quiet dread of choices that cannot be undone.

The cast is a key part of the film’s appeal. Alongside Osas Ighodaro, audiences can expect strong performances from an ensemble of both established Nollywood talent and emerging Kenyan actors. Notably, Emmanuel Mugo portrays Joe Chiama, a local man who becomes entangled in the unfolding drama. Ali Nuhu takes on the role of Senator Farouk, Nkiru’s powerful yet distant husband. Jide Kene Achufusi plays the Lawyer, navigating the legal complexities that arise, while Ken Ambani portrays the Inspector, investigating the mysterious death. Their chemistry brings authenticity to the cross-cultural storyline, adding depth and tension to a narrative where every glance and gesture carries weight.

What is refreshing about Safari is how grounded it feels. Kenya is not presented as a backdrop for drama; it is part of the story, unpredictable, beautiful, and charged with danger. The cinematography captures the tension between freedom and fear, giving the film a visual pulse that feels both intimate and expansive.

Of course, trailers can mislead. Safari could lose its footing if it leans too heavily on romance or moral panic. But if Emelonye keeps the balance between tension and emotion, this could be one of Nollywood’s most talked-about releases of the year.

More than anything, Safari feels like a film about running: from love, from guilt, from the versions of ourselves we no longer recognise. And sometimes, as this trailer suggests, the hardest person to escape is yourself.
