A fishermen village with lush vegetation and steep hilltops, Mfangano is an island in Lake Victoria, in South-West Kenya. Atop one of these hilltops is Dani, an elderly woman, living a secluded life, that is until she meets the energetic and charismatic Daisy. Unaware of Dani’s reputation in the village below, the two quickly develop a budding relationship. When the lake’s fish begin to mysteriously disappear and the local fishermen cry out witchcraft, Dani is shunned evermore, and as the community desperately searches for answers, Daisy refuses to stay away.
