Inside Lagos: Meney VS Survival
.
.
The City Where Oil Money and Crime Rule
.
Lagos, the economic heart of Nigeria beats to the rhythm of the mega rich working in the oil industry, but also to the desperation of the city’s poorest. With 20 million inhabitants across the city looking to find their own wealth in the gulf’s lucrative oil industry, crime has skyrocketed. Armed robbery, extortion and corruption has invaded each corner of a city where those at the top live behind fortified walls and those at the bottom fight for scraps. The city streets are a battleground for survival. Whilst even piles of rubbish in the slums hold some value, illicit activities prosper in the shadow of governmental corruption. From the bribes paid by senior officials to the transactions that take place on the streets, Lagos is fuelled by money and the promise of a quick buck.
This documentary was produced by Keep Shooting and directed by Guillaume Martin and Grégoire Deniau. It was first released in 2014.
