Filmmaker Herbert Alfonso and musician Glenn de Randamie travel to Ghana to do some research on polyrhythm and the West-African spirituality. However, their trip to The Motherland makes them realize that home is more than the place where they grew up. Years later, they recollect their faded memories and try to find the right words to describe their intense experience. What exactly made them feel at home and lost at the same time? What does being home actually mean for a black individual from Europe while visiting Africa? Only abstractions seem to persevere as this colourful and musically-charged collage serves to show how a life-changing experience can leave us with nothing but fragments of a truth that has yet to be discovered.

Filmmaker Herbert Alfonso en muzikant Glenn de Randamie (Typhoon) komen terug van een reis naar 'The Motherland' Ghana, voor hun onderzoek naar polyritmiek en de West-Afrikaanse spiritualiteit. Maar de impact van hun spirituele zoektocht naar de kern van hun roots blijkt – eenmaal op Hollandse bodem – lastig onder woorden te brengen. In gefragmenteerde vorm laten zij hun inzichten, gevoelens en persoonlijke betekenis samenvallen met de basisprincipes van de vodun-religie, verpakt in een unieke muzikale en visuele ervaring.
