In East Africa during World War I, a beautiful blonde woman named Dawn lives among a native tribe that worships her as a goddess. A British prisoner of war falls in love with her, but the tribal chief also desires Dawn. When Dawn's true European identity is revealed, she must choose between the world she has known and the man she loves, while navigating the dangers of both colonial and tribal politics.
