After studying abroad to become a medical doctor, Chibuzor also acquires a foreign religion; Hinduism. He's tearing his christian family apart. The village is also in conflict with his beliefs as a Hindu but his medical practice is absolutely incredible. A plot against him will put him in the state of confinement. He is accused of killing his own father and will still not allow the church to bury him rather be burnt. Incrimination is abominable as cursing the very land they walk on day after day. This family battle is heading to different heights after Chibuzor's brother takes matters into his own hands. So many factions in this case but just before the court intervenes the corpse gets missing. Who stole the body of a dead christian man?

The message of tolerance is important, but the films chaotic and multiple messages (health, hinduism, vegetarianism etc) tend to collide without genuine resolution. The hindu religious fanatic shows no serious regret or awareness of the utter arrogance and intolerance of his abusive use of his power as a medical doctor and position as first son in the family, neither does he actually suffer any repercussion for the anguish he caused the family and his parents. The absence of meaningful change or serious awareness of the meaning of tolerance suggests that a fanatic can actually be as cruel as possible, use folks health as ransom for his religion and still end the saga with smiles, a royal bride and joy evermore. Tolerance is a painful lesson that should actually be learnt and lived through genuine understanding and regret for past actions. A film with misplaced potential. Its value is in its ability to spark off spirited conversations about religions, old and new and the meanings/practice of tolerance and co-existence.

This is a display of Religious fanaticism. The guy who embraced Hinduism in India wants everybody to go his own way, even to the point of imposing creamation on his late father who died as a christian. One need to know a little of Indian religions like Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism to truly truly enjoy the message of this movie. Brahma is the godhead in Hindu religious traditions. Along side with Brahma the creator is Shiva the destroyer and Vishnu the presever. It is a very good movie, begining with intolerance but ended in interfaith relationship.
