The movie is about a young man who returns to his village after a number of years, pretending to-be someone he's not. He uses his wit and charm to make the villagers believe that he is a wealthy investor. A twist of plot brings him face to face with the village "eye" (Agya Koo), who's even more cunning and manipulative.
