Dublin International Film Festival (DIFF Protected content I Do Not Come to You by Chance.

Kingsley (Paul Nnadiekwe) is possessed with a fine mind but poorly connected in the Nigerian job market after university. Burdened with family responsibilities when his ailing father's income dwindles, he turns to his charismatic yet notorious uncle, Cash Daddy (Blossom Chukwujekwu), the larger-than-life mastermind of a thousand email scams.

As Kingsley reluctantly falls under his mentor’s spell, he discovers his own innate flair for the art of the confidence trick.

Based on Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani’s bestselling novel I Do Not Come to You by Chance, Ishaya Bako’s seventh feature is a refreshing coming-of-age tale dancing the line between right and wrong, between chance and choice.
