Your Stage : Seeking Production Partnership for African Drama Series ‘The Incisive’ – A Pulse-Pounding Heist Meets Cross-Cultural Romance by Tugume Benon (Benie)

Hi all,

I'm excited to share my TV series project, The Incisive: A Coincidence, a gripping, authentic African drama that I believe has strong potential for both local and international markets.

Logline:

Upon discovery of secret codes and ill-treatment, a desperate young man enlists his two friends to conduct the perfect heist on an impregnable establishment. While on the run, he coincidentally finds himself falling in love with his victim’s daughter, setting off a chain of events that forces him to confront his dark past.

Genre:

Drama | Heist | Romance

Tone:

Think Money Heist meets Blood & Water, with high stakes, intense drama, and culturally rich storylines. The show explores universal themes of poverty, vengeance, and the consequences of one’s actions, all wrapped in a romantic, pulse-pounding narrative.

Why This Project?

The Incisive offers something fresh and exciting—an authentic African voice with universal appeal. At a time when global audiences are hungry for diverse and culturally rich stories, this series provides a unique perspective on love, justice, and survival in modern Africa. With the success of African titles like Queen Sono and Blood & Water, The Incisive is poised to capture similar, if not greater, interest from both African and global audiences.

What We’re Looking For:

I’m seeking producers, financiers, or production partners interested in collaborating on this exciting project. With a strong narrative, dynamic characters, and the potential to tap into a growing global appetite for African stories, The Incisive presents a lucrative opportunity for the right partner to bring this vision to life. If you have experience with international co-productions or are looking to diversify your slate with high-quality African content, I’d love to connect.

Let me know if you’d be open to reviewing the full pitch deck or discussing potential collaboration opportunities. I’m confident The Incisive will resonate with audiences, and I’m eager to bring this story to the screen with a team as passionate about storytelling as I am.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
