Fola (a magnetic Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù) is an enigmatic figure in his sons’ lives. As they traverse Lagos, Remi and Akin (real-life brothers Chibuike Marvellous and Godwin Egbo) begin to understand him as a person, and the sacrifices he has made for them.

But as Nigeria’s presidential election results loom, events transpire that will dramatically change their relationship with him.
