An undocumented immigrant returns home after facing the indignities of the American Dream working as a washer of the dead, only to be met with a tragedy. A child struggles to come to terms with the fate of their beloved one-eyed chicken Otuanya – treated as a family pet but destined for the cooking pot. A family lives in fear of the dreaded Shadow Fever that haunts their town, keeping them trapped indoors after sunset or risk falling to an eternal sleep.
