The film gained viral notoriety for being a no-budget action film, produced on a reported budget of under $200¹.

The plot of the movie revolves around Captain Alex, one of the most decorated officers in the Uganda People's Defence Force, who is sent out to capture the crime boss Richard and his Tiger Mafia, a criminal organization that controls the drug trade of the city of Kampala. Alex sets up camp in the village of Wakaliga and manages to capture Richard's brother during a commando operation. Richard becomes antagonized and sends a spy to seduce the Captain so that the Mafia can capture him later. Unexpectedly, Alex is found dead that night, with the murderer having escaped. Captain Alex's brother, a Ugandan shaolin monk named Bruce U arrives at Kampala in search of the murderer¹.
