Het Kakuma vluchtelingenkamp in de Turkana woestijn in Kenia is de snelst groeiende stad in de Hoorn van Afrika. De bevolking groeit dagelijks onder meer aan met kinderen die er zonder hun ouders toekomen. Ze werden door hen weggestuurd uit conflictgebieden, richting de relatieve veiligheid van het vluchtelingenkamp. De kinderen grijpen alle mogelijkheden aan om in het kamp een nieuw leven en een toekomst uit te bouwen. Maar kan dit wel? De Belgische filmmaker Lieven Corthouts besloot om meer dan 4 jaar in het kamp te verblijven. Hij bouwde er vriendschappen op en deelde lief en leed met de bewoners. Het leven van enkele van hen - allemaal kinderen en jongeren - legde hij vast op beeld.
