Show notes
In this episode of Toke Moments, Toke sits down with director Dammy Twitch, the creative mind behind Nollywood’s breakout hit Call of My Life, for a candid conversation about his leap from shooting music videos to directing his first feature film. Dammy opens up about the risk of going straight to cinema, the casting process behind the film’s now-famous on-screen chemistry, and the humbling economics of Nigerian filmmaking.
The conversation traces his journey from interning as a BTS photographer in Lagos to becoming one of the most talked-about new directors in the industry, including the sacrifices, the doubt, and the mother who supported him even when she didn’t understand the dream. Dammy also gets refreshingly honest about being his own harshest critic, his love for travel, and what’s next after breaking into the box office top ten.
This is a funny, insightful conversation about passion, risk, and betting on yourself in an industry that doesn’t always reward patience.
