Continues the story initiated in its first video, First Contact. Joe Leahy is the mixed race son of Australian miner Michael Leahy and a young highland girl. Joe, now in his fifties, is a wealthy coffee plantation owner. He lives in Western-style grandeur amidst his poorer Ganiga neighbours. The filmmakers lived in the highlands and filmed for eighteen months. They built a grass and thatch house on the edge of Joe Leahy's plantation, in the "no man's land" between Joe and the Ganiga. The film poignantly portrays both perspectives without value judgments or resolution for either side.

Immaluuraq ("Joe Sun" in English) grew up moving among seasonal camps in the Kobuk River region of Alaska and now resides in Shungnak. In this film, he describes the life of the earlier Kobuk settlements. He talks about women being isolated from the village when they are menstruating or when they are pregnant. He also talks about the predictions of the legendary Inupiaq prophet, Maniilaq, who was his great uncle. Maniilaq foretold of things to come that would change the world and the way people lived in it, all of which happened just the way he said it would. Immaluuraq's talk is known as uqaaqtuaq. Such talks were given by elders to young people who came seeking information and advice.

The ideas of Joseph Ki-Zerbo, a teacher, historian and political man, edited side by side with archival images, the testimony of historians, politicians, colleagues and friends, echo like a call to the rebirth of Africa and the need for Africans to accept their identities in a positive way, while asserting their shared destiny in the face of the challenge of globalisation.

Journey into the light, an audio-visual project by Alessandro Quaranta, based on the project ‘I lluminations – the experience of light’ , a research project by Toni Serra *) Abu Ali , who travelled to certain regions and cities in Iran to compile a collection of video footage, sound recordings and encounters; with the aim of creating, in the first instance, an audio-visual installation in an exhibition space. However, this project never came to fruition under Toni Serra’s direction, as he passed away at the end of 2019, leaving behind unpublished material and many notes.
