Film Synopsis
An aeroplane carrying the humanitarian team The Blue Angels comes into
land at an airport in an African state. The white
benefactors receive a heroes' welcome from the press and local
dignitaries but it isn't long before they are busy loading lorries with
their precious cargo of food. Their destination: a region of the
Sahara where thousands are at risk of starving. The expedition
will be fraught with misunderstandings and hazards, and not all of the
Blue Angels will return home...
