The film follows Lamidi/Karounwi (Baba Sala) whose financial troubles deepen after he is deceived by a traditional diviner promising miraculous wealth. Despair eventually leads him toward suicide and an extraordinary journey into the realm of the dead, where encounters with Death and Joy give the comedy a fantastical, morality-tale structure centered on greed, money, and human folly.
