In a small town in Kenya, two teenage girls from rival political families, Kena and Ziki, develop a deep and forbidden love for each other. Despite the conservative society they live in, they find ways to spend time together and express their love, but their relationship is put to the test when they are caught by Ziki's mother and the townspeople. They are forced to flee and are eventually separated, with Ziki moving to London. Years later, Kena has become a doctor and learns that Ziki has returned to town, rekindling their love.
