Sumario:Elelwani has just completed her studies. She's been offered a dream job in Chicago, and she's engaged to Vele, the love of her life. They drive through the ever greener countryside into Elelwani's village, where they intend to tell her parents their plans to marry and spend their future together. She's blindsided when her parents reveal shortly afterwards that her hand has been promised to the tribal king. Torn between a growing future and a familial duty, she initially rebels, but finally consents. What happens next is a cinematic initiation into the culture of the Venda and is the first film to be made in this language.
