‘Double Cross’ Premieres In Ghana On 6th February

Double Cross - a new movie - is showing for the first time in Ghana on Friday, February 6th, at the three Silver Birds Cinemas at Weija, Accra Mall and the West Hills Mall.

The movie, shot in Ghana, stars award-winning actress Ama K. Abebrese, multi-award winning actor John Dumelo, and Ghana Movie Award best-actor of the year recipient, Adjetey Anang, Jasmine Baroudi, musician and actress Paulina Oduro and veteran screen talent Samuel Odoi-Mensah.

Directed by the prolific Pascal Aka and co-produced by D.R Kufuor and Ama K Abebrese, the love-themed movie tells the story of a young woman, whose life dramatically following a series of unfortunate events.

Effie Howard (Ama K. Abebrese) a streetwise programmer’s life is dramatically turned upside down when her fiancé Ben Boateng (Adjetey Anang) is convicted and sentenced for a bank robbery he did not commit.

She is determined to prove his innocence; she carried out her own investigation and finds the actual robber; Danny Frimpong (John Dumelo) a calm and collected sophisticated genius of a thief who has a personal vendetta against the bank he robbed Neptune Bank International. 

He robbed the bank using technological equipment’s and software’s which enabled him to enter, steal and exit the bank leaving everyone mystified as to how the theft was carried out, no witnesses, no evidence, yet the
money is gone.

She meets Danny and threatens him but offers him a deal, and it’s to rob the bank again with similar methods as the first so the authorities know the actual robber is still out there then Danny does not lose what matters to him most and the reason for the bank robbery. She plans to relocate with the money when Ben is acquitted so as to get away from the stigma attached to ex-convicts and their families.

After the bankrobbery Effie sets her sights on a jewellery warehouse and she wants Danny to rob it. With a lot of jewellery and loads of money at stake, each one of them tries to outwit each other with medleys of smart thinking as they plan and execute the robberies. 

They meticulously plan the robberies, but no amount of careful planning or expertise can prepare them for the dangerous enemy, an enemy Effie least expected and never saw coming; an unexpected turn of events on the day of the robbery.


The movie received great reviews after its London premiere in October last year and is expected to thrill the Ghanaian viewer on February 6th.
