Logline: A young boy named Dada, of Nigerian descent but raised in London,
discovers hidden powers after a tumultuous move to Nigeria. With the help of
newfound friends Ejiro and Anuri, he embarks on a journey to save the world from an
ancient god seeking to rule over all.
---
Dada, a teenager with Nigerian heritage, lives in London with his abusive father
and submissive mother. After his parents' divorce, he and his mother relocate to
Enugu, Nigeria, to live with her family. Dada's world is turned upside down as he
adjusts to the cultural differences and tries to find his place in this new
environment.
In Enugu, Dada meets Ejiro, a friendly and outgoing boy, and Anuri, a passionate
girl with a strong nationalistic pride. Dada is initially met with skepticism by
Anuri due to his British upbringing. Despite this, they gradually form a unique
bond, and Dada finds himself drawn to Anuri.
While exploring the rural outskirts of Enugu, the trio stumbles upon a forgotten
shrine. Dada accidentally enters it and encounters ancient gods who reveal a
looming evil threat. As time passes, Dada begins to exhibit supernatural abilities,
which he initially keeps secret from his friends.
Dada opens up to Ejiro and Anuri about his newfound powers, leading them back to
the shrine. The gods appear once again, explaining that Dada has been chosen as
their champion to thwart the escaped god, Ikenga, who seeks to overthrow the divine
order and reign supreme.
Guided by the gods, Dada, Ejiro, and Anuri train together, honing their individual
strengths and forming a powerful bond. Dada's feelings for Anuri grow stronger, but
he keeps his emotions hidden as they focus on their mission.
Dada, Ejiro, and Anuri confront Ikenga, who possesses immense strength and power.
In a climactic battle, they must harness their collective abilities and unity to
stand against the god of strength and war. The battle is intense and challenging,
testing their limits and friendship.
As the final confrontation approaches, Dada learns a shocking truth—Anuri has been
possessed by Ekwensu, the god of trickery and bargains. Anuri's apparent dislike
for him was a facade, and her true identity surfaces. Dada must grapple with his
emotions while also devising a strategy to save Anuri and defeat the treacherous
god.
In an epic battle, Dada faces Ikenga and emerges victorious, banishing the god once
again and restoring the balance between worlds. The gods commend Dada and his
friends for their bravery and unity.
With the ancient threat vanquished, Dada, Ejiro, and Anuri return to their normal
lives in Enugu. Dada finally confesses his feelings to Anuri, and they begin a new
chapter of their relationship. The experience has transformed them, and they are
forever connected by their shared journey and the extraordinary bond they forged.
