En el corazón de la zona rural de Botswana, el pueblo de Golema Mmidi, asolado por la pobreza, ofrece un refugio a los exiliados que allí se reúnen. Makhaya, un refugiado político de Sudáfrica, se involucra con un experto agrícola inglés y los aldeanos mientras luchan por mejorar sus métodos agrícolas tradicionales con técnicas modernas. Las presiones de la tradición, la oposición del jefe local y, sobre todo, el duro clima amenazan con traer la tragedia a la comunidad, pero, curiosamente, sigue habiendo una esperanza para el futuro.
