Men Don't Die

Synopsis

In possession of stolen wealth, Brume Lauva takes a big step and decides to run away from a life he has known for over a decade. A life of consistent failures and from a girlfriend that shattered his heart and his last feeble grip on a broken dream. He believes Lagos could offer another chance at life, where he could mend his broken heart and perhaps start to dream again. But en route to his land of promise, a fatal bus crash occurs, and Brume is the only survivor—without a scratch. He flees the scene of the accident and hitchhikes his way to Lagos. In Lagos, he begins to live again. He reconnects with a long-lost friend with whom he shared dreams at the university. He invests the stolen money and finds love again. He gets all he craves on a plate—money, comfort and something resembling happiness. But there is more to this world—a monumental test that would change his life forever. MEN DON'T DIE is a thought-provoking story of love, money, death, and spiritualism. It is about a man's personal struggles against the unfairness of life and the search for true happiness.
