“Kidra” is about a woman who has had her destiny laid out for her the minute she was born. She is plunged into a world of Vampires, blood, lust, hunger and thirst – and the knowledge that she is Dracula’s daughter from Africa.

With all her wealth and with all her powers, there’s the one thing she doesn’t have: the right to love and hold on to it. Mattheu, because she spurned him, will see to it that not only will she never love, but she must die to avenge his plight. He too suffers from love…

Naseera: I was inspired by the fact that the only vampire movies of Blacks that I have seen has been the Blackula movies, Def by Temptation, Vampire in Brooklyn and Vamp.

Kidra is about a woman who has had her destiny laid out for her the minute she was born. She is plunged into a world of Vampires, blood, lust, hunger and thirst, and the knowledge that she is Dracula’s daughter from Africa.

For the second time in her existance, she finds Micheal, a man that she has chosen to love for all eternity, but there is one problem. A  Vampire named Mattheu, that she rejected long ago, wants revenge for the pain and suffering her rejection of him has cost him.

Mattheu blames Kidra for his plight. If she won’t give herself willingly to him, Kidra will have no other. Mattheu has decided that Kidra’s death would be his satisfaction in spite of the fact that he is in love with her, too.

“I will always love you”…. Sometimes, we suffer because we love. There are different types of love… The love for what you have, the love for what you lost, and the love of what you want. Kidra has faced all of this. She has lived out her life in fear. In fear of wanting, yearning and desire, for all eternity.

With all her wealth, with all her powers, there’s the one thing she doesn’t have: the right to love and hold on to it. Mattheu, because she spurned him, will see to it that not only will she never love, but she must die to avenge his plight. He too suffers from love…..
