Kabala plot
When an elderly man reveals that his son Hammala's mother is actually an alleged witch, the community's ugly side comes to the fore. Ignored by the residents and embarrassed, Hammala leaves his village. Four years later, despite his unchanged status, he returns. The conflict is brought to a head again when he tries to clean the source of 'the holy water', because it is contaminated with cholera. He collides with the official village shaman. At the same time, the woman he loves is married off to a corrupt villager named Seriba.
