Synopsis


Chris has spent decades running from his past and the belief that his family is cursed. In Botswana, hope has faded into quiet desperation. He clings to his faith and Dumi, his devoted girlfriend, who refuses to wait forever.

When political shifts in Zimbabwe reopen old wounds, Chris must finally face his father’s brutal death and the spirit left without a proper burial. Meeting Shari, who helps families exhume lost loved ones, forces him to choose: confront his past or remain trapped by ghosts.
