Sixty years ago, in an obscure corner of Africa, the only survivor of a light aircraft crash was a baby boy. Perhaps it was the miracle of his survival that gave him the gift of “sight,” and he became a Sangoma, the seer of the Kuvuki tribe, interpreting the wishes of The Great One through the throwing of the bones. Hence his name, “Bones.” Today, at an advanced age but still fit in mind and body, his mission is to pass on his wisdom to his son, Mathambo, and guide him into manhood – a mission doomed to fail because of both of their obsessive personalities.
Mr. Bones, a traditional healer, is transported to London in the 1920s and uses his unique powers to create chaos while trying to return home. Hilarious situations and cultural clashes ensue as Mr. Bones tries to adapt to the unfamiliar surroundings and navigate through the challenges.
Mr. Bones, a professional golfer, discovers that he has a long-lost son in Africa. He embarks on a journey to find him, facing comedic obstacles along the way. With the help of a medicine man and a tribe, Mr. Bones navigates through hilarious adventures to reunite with his son and fulfill his role as a father.
