Series Loglines

The Show E Dey Happen (EDH) is a genre-bending independent animated series set in a futuristic Lagos. It follows the lives of three housemates—Yatu, Beju, and Doja—as they navigate the high-pressure intersection of ambition, faith, and the absurd "hustle" of daily life. Part social commentary, part comedy, EDH is a raw, stylized record of the Nigerian experience, exploring the gap between who you are and who the city demands you to be. The Movement Produced by E.S. Publishing in partnership with Independent Art, the series is a testament to the power of indie storytelling. With a 70% women-led creative team and a community-driven production model, EDH is proving that world-class animation doesn't require a traditional studio—just an unwavering act of will.
