The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

The Uprising: Wives on Strike 3 is a 2024 Nigerian film directed and co-produced by Omoni Oboli. It is a sequel to Wives on Strike: The Revolution and Wives on Strike. The film stars Omoni Oboli, Chioma Chukwuka, Uche Jombo, Ufuoma McDermott, and Hilda Dokubo. The Uprising: Wives on Strike 3 was released in Nigerian cinemas on October 18, 2024, and it became the highest ticket pre-sale for a Nollywood film, earning over ₦10 million through voucher sales within two days of release. Oboli, while reflecting on the journey to returning the Wives on Strike franchise, stated that this is the best of the franchise, and it will also act as a standalone, as viewers do not have to watch Wives on Strike and Wives on Strike: The Revolution to understand the third installment.
