Actor and filmmaker, Femi Adebayo, has revealed that the inspiration behind his latest film, ‘Seven Doors’, came from the life of a king he was close to.
Speaking in an encounter with Saturday Beats, he said, “It is extremely important to preserve our culture. Creating content— films— (woven) around the beauty of our culture is one of the ways of preserving it, so that the generations yet unborn can also enjoy it and be educated.
“I was fortunate to be close to a particular king, and it was what he went through that provoked the idea and concept of ‘Seven Doors’. Many people see our kings as mini-gods, which they are, but they forget that they are humans with blood running in their veins too. So, they(kings) face a lot before and after they get on the throne. And, that is what we displayed in the movie.”
Adebayo added that beyond the theme of culture, the acclaimed movie series is a “love story”.
“I also want to preach that love is above all. So, where we have a conflict between love and tradition, automatically it is love that wins,” he said.
Commenting on the kissing scene with his co-actor, Chioma Chukwuka, he stated, “I was just interpreting the role; getting the character analysis and interpreting it.
“For me though, the best scene was where they had to lay the chiefs on the floor and beat them. I was not even in that scene.”
