In the official trailer, their escape route via a ship they hide on soon becomes chaotic with several fights, bloodshed and death.

Characters played by Dibor and Ezekiel are only but an unfortunate couple who find themselves in the middle of the chaos they did not start and face the threat of being separated for good.

Produced by Fafa Bello Osagie, Roxanne Adekunle-Wright and Agozie Ugwu, Blood Vessel is the latest title to come from Play Network Studios since Okpaleke’s partnership with Namibian studio for the film The Skeleton Coast.

Directed by Moses Inwang, the cast includes Alex Budin, Bimbo Manuel, Ebele Okaro, John Dumelo, Pere Egbi, Francis Duru, Rene Mena, Oyibo Rebel, Haillies Sumney, Katerina Ataman, and Alexa Iniye.
