Faced with a drought that endangers the continuity of
their people, Masai elders are convinced that they have been cursed by the Red
God -- the God of Vengeance.
Following the death of the war chief, a group of adolescents must now cross
over to adulthood, forced to quickly form a new generation of inexperienced
but brave warriors. The adolescents must bring back the mane of a legendary
lion, which appears at every critical period of the Masai history to appease
the wrath of the God and bring back the rains. The survival of their culture
depends on this quest.
