Enrico (Nicholas Cage), a young soldier stationed in Africa, struggles to survive the consequences of a passionate crime igniting an obsessive search for rescue and redemption. A painful toothache becomes the catalyst for a series of bizarre events when Enrico abandons his camp in search of a dentist, but finds instead a hidden oasis and sanctuary with an exotic young African woman. A brief moment of violent lust gives way to an unexpected bond of friendship, but their passionate encounter comes to an abrupt end when she is mortally wounded one night by one of his stray bullets. Guilt ridden, Enrico covers up his crime only to be confronted with the chilling realization that she may have infected him with leprosy. Haunted by the threat of banishment and fearful he may never be allowed to go home again, Enrico embarks upon a desperate odyssey, searching for the truth in her past and the fate of his future.

The story is haunting. I thought it was well written, and the move is very well acted.

Great...no, but worth watching. The initial connection between Cage's character and Patrice-Flora Praxo's seems a bit odd given what happens when they first meet. The imporbability of this and Cage's somwhat mechanical delivery keeps me from rating the film higher. If you buy this I think the film works.

Nicky Cage was not very good in this cinematic decomplishment, as he turns in a horrible acting job in this dull and boring movie
