In an imaginary Mozambican village, Nwavu, an old blind man, is running out of time. With the help of an Healer, they devise a deft ploy to catch a younger womam and, caught up in the imposition of tradition, Jamilah, will have no choice but to marry him. But Nwavu’s deeds upset the balance of spirits, and both are carried into an all-women village, where a man-eating lion rules. With the Spell turned against the Sorcerer, Nwavu must then taste his own medicine.
