Molatlhwa's life is messy. He does not know his parents, which is a void that eats at him daily. He leaves his village under a cloud and takes the long road trip to build a new life for himself in Kimberley, the diamond city where he has heard that dreams can come true. Kimberley in the early 1900s is not an easy place to be an African man. But rumour has it that it is raining diamonds in Kimberley, and a man’s life can change in a heartbeat. None of the rumours of the suffering in the mines and the treacherous road to get there will stop Molatlhwa from taking the long journey. Will his journey of self-discovery be successful?
