What Is It About?

Deadline for Love follows the story of Sophia Coker, a fiercely independent and business-savvy woman who faces a life-altering dilemma. According to her late father Austin Coker’s will, she must get married before her 40th birthday or forfeit her inheritance. This includes a thriving chain of businesses which she stood to lose to her uncle.

At 39, the clock is ticking. In a race against time, Sophia therefore embarks on a series of dates in search of a suitable husband. But the journey is not as easy as she hoped. First, second, third, fourth, and even fifth dates fail to spark the kind of connection she’s looking for. Will she find someone in time, or will everything she’s worked for slip away?

The film has struck a chord with audiences, prompting conversations across Cameroon. Hence, many viewers have praised the casting and Tum’s continued excellence. “Stephanie never disappoints,” some fans have commented.

The film stars Stephanie Tum as Sophia Coker, alongside Kalu Ikeagwu as Victor Coker, Taye Arimoro as Ryan, and Anthony Woode as Ethan. It is directed by Ruth Nkweti and produced by Tum herself under the Embi Productions banner.

Deadline for Love adds to Stephanie Tum’s growing list of impactful productions, such as Saving Mbango, Beneath the Cloak, and several other critically acclaimed projects. This film cements her place as a leading force in the evolution of Cameroonian cinema.
