Your Tomorrow Was Today

A woman's evocative chronicle of modern womanhood, navigating love, family, and the radical desire to remain child-free in a patriarchal world.

Karen has spent years building an independent life in the city, far from her fractured family, leaving no room for love-until she receives news of her mother's sudden death. The devastating news unravels her carefully curated life as Karen grapples with painful memories and the sister she left behind a decade ago.

As grief, memories, and long-buried resentment reemerge, Karen's troubles have only begun: she's pregnant, her secret affair with a younger colleague is exposed, and Omo is gravely ill.

In the face of cultural expectations surrounding love, duty, and motherhood, Karen finds solace in The Women's Group-a circle of fierce, resilient women who challenge her to confront the truth: forgiveness isn't always mutual, and love can take unexpected forms.

Set against the vibrant landscapes of contemporary Lagos City and Eastern Nigeria, Your Tomorrow Was Today is a poignant journey of feminist reckoning, exploring autonomy, identity, and the choices that shape us.
