Tazmanian Devil (2021)

Synopsis

19-year-old Nigerian immigrant Dayo starts his first year at an American University after recently moving to the United States. Naturally reserved, Dayo decides to join Tau Alpha Zeta, a popular African-American fraternity that represents the flair and confidence he’s missing in his life. During his pledging process, Dayo begins to bond with his fellow group of pledgees; however, at home, Dayo must keep his college life a secret from his previously estranged father, Julius, who is a strict, deeply religious pastor at a local church. Adding to the tension of unfamiliarity between the two is Dayo’s hidden resentment toward his father, who abandoned him and his mother, Elizabeth, in Nigeria to start a new life in America when Dayo was just a child. As the pledging process grows increasingly demanding, Dayo must decide if he wants to appease his father and their relationship, or if he wants to become his own man.
