Idled by the sudden death of their leading actress, an award winning film crew stumbles across a 37 year old barely employed alcoholic in a strip bar in Detroit. There they encounter, one Curtis Lilly, a man who believes he has been chosen by God to lead Black people to take over the world. Before they can dismiss what would otherwise be obvious madness, he performs a miracle that prevails upon them to document his holy mission.
