About the event
Emeka is a caring husband unable to resist the temptations of frustrated housewife Isabella, whose usually cautious husband Bello has problems of his own. Bello gets arrested by the righteous Babajide, who is convinced that society is on the verge of collapse. Closer to home, the signs seem to point towards Babajide's son Kola being of an "immoral persuasion."
At the heart of the mischief are two opportunists, Charles and Chichi, who happen upon Emeka's phone and, having read through the contents, decide to blackmail him. Little does Chichi realize that Charles' misdemeanors have set in motion a chain of events that will lead to unforeseen consequences. Confusion Na Wa was winner of the 'Best Picture' category at the 2013 African Movie Academy Awards, the continent's highest accolade for homegrown cinema.
