A series pitch

An African City

Five women. One city. Love, ambition and the beautiful chaos of coming home to Accra.

01 — Logline

Accra's answer to Sex and the City — five returnee women redefine modern African womanhood.

After years abroad, five friends move back to Ghana's capital. Between power cuts, pricey rent and complicated men, they discover home has changed — and so have they.

Told with wit and candour, the series tackles dating, sex, career, class and identity through a lens rarely seen on screen: glamorous, ambitious, unmistakably African.
