Desperate Couple (2025)

DESPERATE COUPLE is a Nigerian movie that kicks off with a bold undercover mission gone hilariously wrong.

When a young journalist disguises herself as a “stud” to uncover what men really want, she stumbles into the wildest lie of her life — a mistaken arrest at a queer bar, a drunk stranger with nothing left to lose, and one desperate excuse to the police: “It was our engagement party!”

Now, forced by the court to live together – can this mismatched pair survive a month of secrets, identity swaps, and a growing connection neither saw coming? A comedy of errors meets a romance built on lies.
