Synopsis
The film concerns a trip to Ethiopia, to contrast the image of starving children, as influenced by "We are the World", with a personal and contemporary image. Rather bewitched by the beautiful women, Frédéric Baillif gets to know many Ethiopians and their living circumstances. In doing so, he reaches a clearer understanding of why Ethiopia is still dependent on food aid today. A personally narrated, insightful road movie.
