A Southern African settings story of what seems to be an impossible love in the midst of tribal differences and racial fumes. A story of friendship, diversity and adventure, taking you along the journey of self discovery as Nothando, "Mother of love" finds belonging in lands not of her birthing. She learns to stand courageous of her love and strives to tear down the walls that divide her people.
Sheds light to the concept of "ubuntu"- an African ideology focusing on the spirit of togetherness, people's allegiances and relations with each other- how African nations can flourish as one by embracing "ubuntu" as more than the unity of one's own thede, but by breaking down the boundaries we've all come to set and accept amongst our kind.
