A murder has happened, and a detective is sent to investigate. A dead man's spirit enters the detective, because the detective is doomed to die and the spirit wants to die again, in order to be laid to rest properly.

The murder? A director of an old people's home is died. Everybody wants to claim they killed him; he wasn't a well-liked fellow.

Behind all of this is – of course – the post-colonial struggles of Mozambique.
