About a week after A Man for the weekend movie premiere, Cameroonian actress and producer, Syndy Emade is spotted on a movie set in Nigeria alongside US Based Cameroonian actor, Kang Quintus. This movie also features the likes of Daniel K Daniel, Martha Ankomah and Tana Adelana. It is titled Side Chick Chronicles. Below are a few pictures from the set of this movie.
After watching this trailer you sure wouldn’t miss the movie premier! A Man For The Weekend tells us the story of Candace Ayuk (Candy), a young business executive. Driven by her career, she has no time for the pleasures of life, much to the chagrin of her mother who wants to see her settle down. This drives a wedge between the two as Candy finds herself avoiding her mother’s calls for obvious reasons. Fate however plays a prank on her as she finds herself trapped by a promise to her mother, and must pay her a visit over the weekend with her “boyfriend”. A character obviously non-existent in her life. This starts the quest for a man for the weekend, coming to an end when she agrees on a business deal with Bryan Mbah, an intern with her firm, who unknown to her, is a secret admirer.
This is how, Candy and Bryan head off for a weekend at her mother’s were they are joined by her senior sister Christelle who is their mother’s favourite. She is the yardstick by which Candy is always measured, and her husband Richard. We are taken through a roller-coaster weekend wherein age old sibling rivalries emerge, family secrets are revealed. Bryan then gets a better picture of why Candy is the way she is, deepening his admiration for her. The weekend however takes a turn for the worst when Candy’s story turns on its head and her man for the weekend is revealed for who he really is a hired hand. Tempers flare, the family splits in discord with each person going their way, attempting to resume their lives as they were before. Christelle’s marriage is already fragile before the weekend get-away is crumbling.
Candy, hitherto driven and career-minded, finds her thoughts drifting towards Bryan. Their mom now conscious of how unfair she has been to Candy seeks out a means to make amends. In a nutshell, A Man For The Weekend is a romantic comedy that bares everyday family issues. It puts a comic spin to events while accentuating the overriding message that it is ok to be you, stay true, be patient and let life happen. This movie was shot on location in Limbe and Bonanjo in Douala. Produced by Syndy Emade and Directed by the multiple awards winning Director, ACHILLE BRICE.
