In 2003, a disc jockey announces over a Kenyan radio station that the government is offering free primary school education to all natives who can prove citizenship with a birth certificate.
Her teaching colleague Alfred (Munyua), ridicules him and demands he leave.
He begins to hallucinate and becomes confrontational with the students, struggling to continue his academics.
