The issue of inheritance and succession is an essential part of most African customs. This question very often goes against civil law and does not require any guarantee for the children of the deceased when uncles are considered as the traditional representatives of the deceased. This film highlights the story of a rich man who suffered from an incurable disease. When he dies, the deceased's parents plan to share the inheritance without involving the children. Feeling their future threatened, children refuse to share what is rightfully theirs in the eyes of the law. A merciless struggle then began for the control of wealth; it soon degenerated into spells and occult practices.
