The week in a life of a struggling, desperate single mother, Sisonke, who goes on a quest of absolution. She travels from church to church seeking a miracle for her daughter who has a mysterious disability. She has been doing this for years, but now it is not driven by faith but by a kind of wrath towards God. Underneath all of this determined, inexhaustible self-sacrificing quest to heat her daughter, Sisonke is trying to escape her guilt. Her journey doesn't end, she does not find what she is looking for, she does not learn to see that it may be closer than she realised, she continues, blinded by rage and guilt, to carry her daughter on her back, hoping one day God will relieve her of the burden.
