When an ebullient Makadem takes to the stage, he begins his performance with the story of his alter ego, the Ohangla Man, who was used to eating at his neighbours’, drinking free beer and now flies off to America, still hoping to live off other people’s sweat.
Within three months, his visa expires and he finds himself cold and lonely and is deported back home where the ‘poor fellow has practically nothing to return to.’
