Traveling to Himba country means going back to a time that no longer exists, but that nevertheless lights the way for the Africa of tomorrow. In the outlying districts of Opuwo,

capital of Kaokoland, the filmmaker lives at the rythmn of the Himbas. Here the papayas are ready to be tasted before they get ripe -- he knows, he was there.
