Ovie has always made people laugh without trying. When a talent scout spots him at a community dispute in Warri, he gets an unlikely shot at the Lagos stand-up circuit. The timing could not be worse. His father has just died, leaving a 2 million naira debt to a creditor who has taken his sister as collateral. Ovie must build a career and raise a ransom at the same time. The Stand Up is a warm, funny Nigerian comedy about a man who discovers his gift at the worst possible moment.
