In the heart of Lagos, When Nigeria Happens follows Fagbo and Poco, two young dancers bound by friendship, passion, and a dream of making it in the world of dance. Living in a small, struggling commune, they fight to create a life where art is enough to sustain them. But when tragedy strikes, their dreams are threatened, and they are forced to confront harsh realities. Caught between survival and ambition, love and responsibility, they must make choices that will change their lives forever. Raw, emotional, and visually striking, When Nigeria Happens is a powerful story of youth, resilience, and the cost of chasing dreams in a city that never lets up.
