The story

Norman Taylor is a psychology professor lecturing about belief systems and superstition at an English university. After a scene in which his American wife, Tansy, searches frantically and finds a poppet left by a jealous work rival, he discovers that Tansy is practising obeah, referred to in the film as "conjure magic", which she learned in Jamaica. She insists that her charms have been responsible for his rapid advancement in his academic career and for his general well-being.
