Kweku Ananse is widely known in the community as a trickster. And he keeps picking fights with Papa Gandhi – a respected member of the community – for always telling him to stop being lazy and find a job. But Ananse’s attitude towards Papa Gandhi suddenly changes for the better when he learns that Ama, Papa Gandhi’s daughter, has won a prize and was about to travel to Britain. Ananse is moved by jealousy to hatch a plan. Does he want to go to Britain too? How far does he go?
