This is the bust of a leading star
in a film of the same title. A village boy leaves his village and goes to a city in search of adventures.
There, he finds out that in contrast, the human relationship is impersonal and individualistic.
He becomes neurotic and confused, as portrayed in his face. He falls into bad company and is arrested
by the police, sent to court and given to a doctor's family for adoption as he is under age.
My wife and I took part as film stars in this dramatic first feature film of Ghana.
