About this listen
To salvage their crumbling marriage, Madeleine and Julian devise a secret retreat to Ethiopia’s remote Omo Valley with their infant daughter, Leopaula. To avoid getting caught, the small British family voyages down the Omo River in a rowboat. With Leopaula softly snoring in the bow, the young parents finally find a loving moment of peace as the rhythmic ebb lulls them into a deep slumber—until Julian’s frantic cries shatter the silence. “Maddy, wake up! Leopaula’s gone!”
As the boat steadies and the gravity of their situation sinks in, Julian scrambles to craft an alibi for when they return home. Old resentments resurface, reigniting the bitter arguments that drove them to the valley. All the while, an ominous, unnoticed tribesman mutely watches as despair grips the Brits. “Hey,” he calls out, his voice piercing through the tension. “I know where your baby is.”
