Amid the dunes of the Sahara, a jaima, the traditional Saharawi tent. A woman, through the tea ritual, takes us into the past and present of her people, persecuted and driven out of their land. She offers us three teas: the first, bitter as life; the second, sweet as love; the third, mild as death. The light of the desert is reflected on the Saharawi people, their life made up of essentials and their struggle to endure.
