Ajeemah and
his son Atu are enjoying their walk through the
African forest. Atu has told his father that he and
Sisi will be married. Ajeemah is very happy for the
young couple. Little do they know that their entire
lives will never be as they imagine. Out of the
forest come slave traders who capture the two men
and take them to a ship. The men are exposed to
horrors while on the ship. When they arrive in
Jamaica, they are sold separately. Follow the
stories of two men who are forced to live their
lives as someone's slave. How will the two men cope
with the injustice heaped on them?
