On the journey, a
middle aged man who is Mamo’s follower escorts him and the sons as a driver of
an orange mini bus which he has borrowed from a friend.
Mamo
gathers his sons one by one from different areas. When the last son joins the
team he insists to speak to Mamo.
He explains to Mamo that the Old of
the village has predicted that Mamo should not go on the trip because as the
full moon comes, something awful will happen to him.
Mamo persist on
continuing his journey. He claims that he must continue his trip despite all the
obstacles because he was not allowed to work for many years.
Mamo
intends to take Hesho, a woman singer who lives with 1334 other women in exile,

self confidence. While crossing the borders, Mamo’s teams face many difficulties
