Little else perhaps defines relationship more than the family does. You don't choose your family. It is a relationship created through blood covenant. Family showcases the lofty attributes of love, loyalty, solidarity, affinity, sacrifice and hope. But difficulties and challenges frequently stir and stare at the family defense lines to challenge and test those lofty attributes. Enitan the film embodies the totality of this family characterization. A family is faced with the challenge of multi-directional transition from the familiar to uncharted territory. A young, career husband has lost his wife, left with a ten year old daughter whose performance in school suddenly creates new worries. Another woman is stepping in into the lives of father and daughter. Amid all these, Enitan, the challenged daughter is rapidly losing confidence in herself and steadily finding schooling a nightmare. The step mother steps in diagnoses dyslexia? Can she turn the situation around, would she succeed where many others have failed? Enitan is a story with such strong emotional roots, penetrating insight and abiding impressions. It comes with such dramatic pace, bringing out quality in the human spirit. It is both a feast and a learning!
