Searching

In Lagos, Lina goes on a date with Jide, whom her cousin introduced to her, and the evening goes well until he becomes unreachable. Her cousin explains that Jide thinks Lina is too old for him, and Dami, Lina's friend, is heartbroken when Christopher ends their eight-month relationship, saying they are not compatible. Lina and Dami commiserate with another close friend, Lena, about the difficulty of finding serious relationships in their mid-thirties. Determined to find husbands, they wear bracelets said to attract men, join dating apps, and put themselves out at bars and events. One of the women matches with Alex on a dating app, but in person he looks nothing like his pictures, and she repels him. She runs into Bayo, an old friend, and the two quickly rekindle their connection. They exchange numbers and arrange to see each other again. Hidden loyalties begin to stir as old feelings from university days resurface. Dami discovers that a close friend has been seeing Christopher, the man who rejected her, and she catches them in a compromising position. She confronts the friend over twenty-two years of friendship, storms out, and declares the friendship over. She severs contact, and at work she lashes out at her assistant so harshly that she dismisses her. In the intense loneliness that follows, she examines her own conduct. Christopher returns asking for a second chance, but Dami recognizes she no longer wants him and sends him away to focus on herself. Apologies are exchanged, and Dami acknowledges her mistakes, rehires the assistant she fired, and rebuilds the friendships she broke. One of the group receives a proposal from the man she loves, surrounded by rose petals and Marry Me balloons, and accepts. A celebratory dinner brings the friends together, and they raise their glasses.
