Set against the backdrop of Detty December Festivities in Lagos, Fiyin (28), Elo( 30), Ivie (27) and Gbemi (59) navigate friendship, love and loss. Fiyin is in love with her best friend Elo, only Elo announces that he’s proposing to his secret girlfriend.
For Elozonam, this trip marks his return to Lagos for the first time since the tragic passing of his younger sister, his sole sibling, three years ago. Elo is resolute in rekindling the joy in his family’s Christmas traditions, despite years of grief, but his mother remains reluctant to move forward.
Similarly, Gbemi, a 59-year-old woman, is ensnared in a love triangle, torn between her recently divorced high school sweetheart and her two-year-long boyfriend. She confronts her deepest fears about loss and vulnerability.
Ivie, born and raised in London, arrives in Lagos for the holidays with a singular aspiration: to experience the most exhilarating Detty December ever but she finds herself falling for an okada (bike) rider who harbors aspirations of becoming an Afrobeats superstar.
