Premise
Asante, a funeral car driver in Ghana, needs a spouse but his work puts most ladies off. He begins to look all starry eyed at a customer (Esi) whose mother has passed on, and figured out how to prevail upon her. Be that as it may, her dad precludes union with a funeral care driver. Asante continues and turns into the principal funeral car driver in Accra to get married. This movie was to explain the African culture showing the change in African funeral traditions due to the social impact of colonialism in Africa.[6][8][9][10]
