Plot
Paul and Sali are a married black couple who are unable to have biological children, and have been struggling to adopt a child for a long time. When Sali finally receives the call that their adoption file is approved and that a 4-month-old white baby boy called Benjamin is available, it seems like nothing could go wrong anymore.
