Bantu Ndongo, a na ve, very trusting, 28-year-old African man, arrives in New York City for the very first time ever; in search of his father that he has never met. To keep a promise to his mother who just died. On his very first day in town, he lands in the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation) and ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) custody. He is robbed and almost shot at, narrowly escaping death. He quickly realizes finding someone in New York City with a population of over 8 million people, without any contact information, is synonymous with the proverbial camel passing through the eye of a needle. And this becomes even more complicated as he falls head over heels in love with the very beautiful Tamika; unwittingly becoming the target of Tyrell, an extremely dangerous gangster wannabe. A deviously vicious young man who stalks Tamika constantly. Does New York City swallow him up? Does he find his father? Does Tamika requite his love? Does he become another victim of the ruthless gangster's viciousness?
