Deborah Peace Peter

I am an emerging Nigerian screenwriter with a passion for creating engaging, emotionally resonant stories for film and television. My storytelling interests span drama, romance, family stories, suspense, psychological thrillers and musical dramas. I enjoy developing layered characters, compelling conflicts, meaningful relationships and unexpected turns that keep audiences invested. I am particularly drawn to stories that explore human emotions, friendship, betrayal, love, family dynamics, personal struggles and character growth. My approach to storytelling focuses on creating relatable characters, authentic dialogue and narratives that leave a lasting impression. I am currently developing an original Christmas-themed Nollywood screenplay centred on two close friends and the complicated relationship between their mothers. Blending humour, friendship, family drama and emotional conflict, the story explores how a disagreement between two mothers threatens the bond between their families. I am passionate about collaborating with creative teams, learning from industry professionals and contributing fresh, thoughtful stories to the African film and television industry.
