"Blood & Oil (Oloibiri)" (2015), also known simply as "Oloibiri," is based on true events and tells the story of the first oil well drilled in Nigeria and its profound impact on a small Niger Delta village. The film depicts how the discovery of oil, initially seen as a blessing, leads to environmental devastation, lack of basic resources like clean water, and exploitation of the local communities. This sets the stage for violent conflict between militants and the government, fueled by the greed of oil corporations, with far-reaching consequences for the global oil industry. The narrative follows a hardened militant leader seeking revenge for the injustices suffered by his people and a Western oil executive who comes to witness the crisis firsthand.
