Eight-year-old Bobo grows up on her family farm in Rhodesia in 1980 during the final days of the Bush War to end British colonial rule. Her eyes see conflict, the family's bond to the land, and the lasting wounds that war imprints on those who live through it.

the acting was good but i felt like the whole thing was a pity party for white colonizers during a time period when zimbabwe was fighting for its independence from british rule so it was inherently tone deaf
