SYNOPSIS
A boy called Surya suffers from a rare disorder called Congenital Insensitivity to Pain. The condition is life threatening but he escapes his condition with the help of his only friend Supri, his mischievous grandfather Ajoba and a host of martial-arts films on VHS. He is inspired to become a vigilante as a result of one tape in particular in which a one-legged man called Karate Mani fights off 100 combattants. When he is an adult, Surya returns to the neighborhood of his childhood and begins a strange series of adventures involving Supri, Mani and Mani’s evil twin brother Jimmy.
