Tales of Eve Season 5 Premieres Soon

With promises of high-end entertainment comes the fifth season of the popular television series, Tales of Eve. Tales of Eve is produced by Genesis Studios. The new season is titled, ‘Thanks for Coming’. The thrust of this season is about prostitution otherwise known as runs.

The producer, Olatubosun Olaegbe said that “aside the need to entertain, Genesis Studios take on concepts from a human angle in order to impact lives by highlighting on key features like overcoming challenges and moral values.

“We know this is a kind of society where people go through a lot. However, if they are determined and focused, they can always come out successful. We also know the importance of womanhood. They are our mothers and without them, a lot of things won’t go right. This is why we decided to create a content built around them,” Olatubosun Olaegbe says.

Shot on location, in the University of Lagos (UNILAG) and other environs around Lagos, ‘Thanks for Coming’ is set in a glamorous world of three undergraduates, Irene, Boma and Eric whose paths cross by providence, but become intertwined by the circumstances that life throws their way as they navigate their way through university.

Irene and Boma are completely different girls who form an unlikely friendship. Irene is your ultimate femme fatale. A 300 level student of Business Administration whose painful past turned into an unrepentant runs girl. Boma on the other hand is a young jambite who faces family problems and financial constraints.

Fate brings to the fore an inevitable friendship as Irene is forced to confront with the shadow of her past through Boma who is about to become involved in the illicit trade of their bodies.

Irene’s life takes a different turn when she falls in love with her classmate Eric, a young intelligent man. Eric’s relationship with Irene brings Eric more heartbreaks than he envisaged. As Irene becomes more involved with Eric, she longs to live a clean life. But the question is…Will her love for Eric win over her desire for wealth?

The path these three students recklessly tread is much steeper and darker than they imagine as it is one in which they may be unable to find their way back.

The director of the series, Imoh Umoren – A Canada trained cinematographer and AMVCA Award nominee for ‘Best Film Online’ describes the season as replete with amazing performances and real stories.

“I am very impressed with the actors who deliver the whole story professionally. A lot of the time, the scenes don’t look like acting. They look more like real life and people will be able to relate to it because a lot of things that the girls depicts in the story are things that everyday students in Nigeria are struggling with”.

Technically, the cinematography is amazing so it will be top notch,” the Canada trained director says.

The new season of the drama series features likes of Nancy Isime as the lead act, Judith Audu, Adeniyi Johnson, Jerry Smart Ordu, Ifeoma Ifeka and a host of others.

The new season of Tales of Eve will be aired in March, the producers revealed.
