His House

In HIS HOUSE, Bol and Rial Majur are a young couple from South Sudan trying to begin a new life in England. They escaped the horrors of the civil war in their South Sudanese homeland, and while refugees in England, they hope that they're on the path to citizenship. One of the conditions of attaining citizenship is that they're to live in a dilapidated apartment in London to wait out the time until they may be granted citizenship. Upon arrival in this new apartment, they soon discover, in addition to the garbage in the yard and inside the building, something seems to be lurking in the walls. Strange noises occur at all hours. Demonic apparitions seem to appear. Rial soon believes it to be the work of an "apeth," or witch, who is offering them a trade: If they allow themselves to be taken by the demons, the young girl who journeyed with them from South Sudan who died of drowning when their boat capsized en route to England will get to live again. While Rial sees this as a sign for them to leave England, Bol is determined to stay and to stop the demons from haunting their new home.
