It is a suspense filled and dramatic narrative of the divorce proceeding of an alleged online infidelity case which takes a dramatic twist as the identity of the lover is revealed. Secrets and conspiracies are unfolded; Love and Trust are put on trial and one is in quandary to which wins? Love or trust? "Witness Box" projects the impact of the patriarchal nature of the traditional Nigerian society, which enables men to dominate women invariably causing emotional frictions that negatively affect the family unit. It depicts the emotional trauma women face in sacrificing their dreams and aspirations for their families. In this story, a young selfless woman Bolanle gives up her better paying career to become a stay-at-home wife on the counsel of her husband, Ben whose clandestine reasons are deeply rooted in his insecurities. She must defend herself when her inattentive husband accuses her of infidelity and files for divorce. The film boasts of an array of award winning cast who are a delight to watch within the Nigerian and International community. They include: Wale Ojo (Ben Arinze), Keira Hewatch (Bolanle Arinze), Sola Sobowale (Ben's Mother), Soni and Bettey Irabor (Mediator & Counsellor). The film set is in Lagos, Nigeria. See less
