Ashes Fall

About This Movie

Ashes Fall is a raw glimpse into the chaos that follows a devastating car bomb in Nigeria. The film really nails the tension—it's all about moral ambiguity and the human cost of violence. Joanna, played with a quiet intensity, finds herself caught between a peacekeeper seeking justice and a man who might be a victim or a villain. The pacing can be slow at times but it really heightens the emotional weight as we learn about each character's backstory. The performances are visceral and unvarnished, and there's something really compelling about the practical effects. It feels like a piece that wants you to sit with the discomfort instead of wrapping things up in a neat bow.
