Plot
[edit]In the film, Isla (Toyin Abraham) continues to see more ghosts than before and has evolved into a messenger for the dead. She now also has a partner Makawhy (Mercy Johnson-Okojie). Isla is sought for by any ghost who has been unfairly killed or who has a score to settle with the living. She eventually encounters Amoke (Osas Ighodaro), a "semi-ghost"; a woman who is in a coma and caught between the worlds of the living and the dead. Finding the person who poisoned her and attempting to awaken her from her unconscious state is isla's main mission, because Amoke only has a few days to live.[5]
