A bittersweet adventure of a single father with a mission to show his 9 and 12-year-old daughters as much of the world as possible. By bicycle. Before it is too late. Eva, the oldest, has an eye disease which could make her blind any day.

The father, Mikael, has been an explorer and adventurer for all his life. He wants to teach his daughters his trade. So far, they have done 4600 km through Sweden and the dusty and hilly Anatolian plateau. This year they are crossing Namibia. Through desert, sandstorms, sickness, pre-teenage moods and broken tents. The dream of the girls is to see the big animals with their own eyes, for one of them maybe for the only and last time.
