Die Hamar in Südäthiopien leben in einer steten Bedrohung durch Dürre. Baldambe, ein alter Hamar-Mann, erklärt in einer Reihe von Interviews den Filmemachern und Studenten der Universität Addis Abeba, wie die Hamar Ziegen halten, Sorghum anbauen, wilden Honig sammeln und die Wasservorräte verteilen. In jüngster Zeit sind jedoch die Dürreperioden bedrohlicher geworden. Baldambe bittet deshalb durch eine Anrufung um Regen.
