Georgia lives alone in a cottage in the Welsh countryside. While watching a news story about civil unrest in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, she sees in the footage a man that she believes is her husband, who presumably died in an accident when his plane crashed into the jungle three years earlier. She therefore decides to travel to the Congo in search of her husband. | ||||||
