His extended family with his parents and siblings had been riddled with long-standing disagreements that ran too deep to resolve. He reflects on how simple issues degenerated and became life-long enmity even to death. He is determined to do whatever it takes to repair his family and bring everyone back in love. He is very aware that he doesn't fully know what this means but he does not care. He sends out a video message to his four children. His plea is simple. Bring your list of offenses and be ready to address them. Nothing will be off-limits. In addition to just being nominated as 1 of 4 finalists in the Best Film by an African Living Abroad category at the 2021 African Movie Academy Awards AND a finalist in the Experimental category for the Silicon Valley African Film Festival, First Call has also won the Best Feature Film at the CineFAM Film Festival 2021.
