One family's tale of a homeland lost... and a homeland found.

A Jewish woman named Jettel Redlich flees Nazi Germany with her daughter Regina, to join her husband, Walter, on a farm in Kenya.

While Regina adapts readily to this new world, forming a strong bond with her father's cook, an African named Owuor.
