    • Synopsis
    • Jawu lives in one of the floating slums pushed into the lagoon which gives the megacity Lagos its name – a young mother scraping by in an indifferent city. However, the spirit of the great warrior king Egbaezen has marked her for a terrible responsibility and ordeal. Danger now threatens his people, as corrupt officials conspire to evict thousands from their ancestral homes. Egbaezen’s spirit takes the form of an African Grey parrot, and sets in motion a chain of events that will change Jawu and her entire community forever.
