Synopsis

In the vibrant, bustling Lagos of the 1940s, a young Kenyan man named Jomo travels to Nigeria for business. He is a man of means from a respectable family, but his heart is instantly captured by the fiery spirit and radiant beauty of a local Nigerian woman, Dolamu. Their connection is immediate and genuine, a whirlwind of picnics on sun-drenched beaches and secret dances at local clubs. Jomo, deeply in love, spares no expense in showering Dolamu with gifts, even winning over her father, a proud elder in the village of Ogere, with the gift of a prized motorcycle. But their happiness is threatened by a storm of family objections. Back in Kenya, Jomo's family believes he should marry a girl from their own community, and their constant pressure casts a shadow over the budding romance. Overwhelmed by the mounting disapproval, Dolamu confides in her father, who, desperate to secure his daughter’s future, takes a drastic step.
