Synopsis

Nimi leads a peaceful life in a female dominated Nigerian community - until the arrival of author Matthew. Unmarried with a young son, Nimi's status is frowned upon. When the handsome Reverend Fola moves into town and shows interest in Nimi, it is like a godsend for Nimi's mother. At last, she has the opportunity to marry off her daughter and regain her family's respectability, or so she thinks. While Nimi has become resigned to marrying the unexciting but respectable Revered Fola, she is still very intrigued by Matthew...
