The film takes place in Ghana during the colonial period. Aba Appiah, a woman born to a family of privileged settlers, falls in love with Joe Quansah, a fitting mechanic and son of a simple fisherman.

This family conflict leads to complex and unforeseen consequences.

gollark: Or at least not secure in some contexts; it's fine for the potatOS use as far as I can tell.
gollark: It's probably not very secure as it doesn't use a standard curve or whatever and has no side channel attack mitigations, but OH WELL.
