Aprašymas

‘LET’S KEEP SHIT SIMPLE. WHAT ARE WE DOING? WE’RE GOING TO GO ON MISSIONS THAT WE DRAW FROM A HAT. RISKY MISSIONS. RISK, THAT’S ALL IT IS.’

Nelson Jekwa: young, black, privileged. Named after Mandela, his future blinks promisingly. Bored and high, he and his friends play a game of risk. But what starts off as some edgy fun, evolves, spawning an entire social movement. The goal: to help Africa get out from the bottom of the world’s toilet. While missions are being executed all over the continent, Nelson’s group plans ten heists to help pay back Africa’s debts to the West. But their game has spun out of control.
