Five young Zulu women gear up and go backpacking for the first time in their lives, in the oldest game reserve in Africa: Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. They learn of the plight of this primordial wilderness, severely threatened by a neighboring opencast coal mine, in addition to intensified rhino poaching that could escalate towards an extinction. The group's journey of self-discovery, growth and healing serves as a reminder of how we all are intimately linked to nature; what we do to her, we do to ourselves. Confronting majestic if precarious realities, and coming together to share their deepest challenges and most painful life stories, the women inspire each other and emerge with renewed self-esteem.
