"I Like It Here," follows a young man named Takyi, who struggles with his identity as a hybrid of two cultures. Born and raised African-American speaking only English, he also belongs to the richly diverse West African country - Ghana. Attempting to reconnect with his terminally ill Grandfather (who he's named after), he realizes how out of place he is in a society that should be his inheritance.
