A German environmentalist decides to love a Maasai - and to live in one of the most patriarchal cultures in the world. On a research trip to Africa, biologist Stephanie Fuchs meets Sokoine, a traditional Maasai. The two fall in love, but the hurdles that stand in the way of their relationship are great. Finally, they give their love a chance and Stephanie Fuchs moves to Sokoine's village in Tanzania. She soon faces major challenges: she first has to find her place in the traditional village community. Her life among the Maasai is repeatedly overshadowed by serious setbacks: Stephanie is injured in a dramatic car accident and after the birth of their son Yannik, she suffers from postnatal depression. But the biggest test for Stephanie, Sokoine, and their village comes when the consequences of climate change become apparent - in the form of persistent droughts that threaten their livelihoods. Stephanie comes up with a plan to protect her son and her family from climatic changes. A moving and cleverly told true story of love, home, and the great challenges of our time.
