Call of My Life, written by Uzoamaka Power and directed by Dammy Twitch, is a film that knows this language and has decided, with considerable charm and only occasional uncertainty, to go against it. Power plays Soluchi, a call centre agent whose emotional texture runs at a frequency the city around her has not been calibrated to receive. She's quirky and high spirited. She spins on the pavement on her way to work. She gives herself completely to whatever she sets her heart on, which in the film’s opening act is Kalu (Zubby Michael), a financially comfortable Igbo businessman whose love language is his debit card
