Joy Okafor is overwhelmed as the dutiful Nigerian daughter has been planned every aspect of her mother's seventieth birthday weekend on her own. But when the grandkids try to wake Mama Mary, they find that she isn't sleeping after all. Refusing to believe that her sister is gone-gone, Auntie Nancy declares that she has had a premonition: Mama Mary will rise again like Jesus Christ himself on Easter Sunday. The family overhauls their birthday plans to welcome the Nigerian Canadian community and the host of AJAfrika TV to help spread the word that Mama Mary is coming back.
