African outsider Michael Okeke left Nigeria six years ago to survive in the frequently disconnecting and overcrowded New Delhi, which he despises heartily. He dreams of true love and a better job but is pushed into only the 4 C-s: cell phone, cocaine, cash, and clients.
Michael Okeke’s relationship with Delhi is a fresh yet bothersome portrait of life in India as an African man. Michael struggles through countless bouts of unfounded racism in a bid to find success. The dynamics between Michael and the people he encounters hold a satirical mirror to the global relations that trouble numerous immigrant populations.
