A world between the dreams and reality, between commonsense pragmatism and madness, between earthly gendarmes, priests, fair organizers on one hand, and children of God, to whom all our smartness is crazy, on the other.

Obsessed by the dreams of a comfortable life, son of a coal miner comes back to his native country with plans to sell his father's house in order to travel to the African diamond mine in Katanga. Re-visiting of his hometown brings back his childhood trauma, and the nightmare of the old and new love, the events in and around the mine, all put his obsession with Katanga on test.

Marta finally meets her prince on a white horse, but the romance quickly becomes complicated when it turns out that her "Mr. Perfect" is actually a paid assassin on the run from the drug cartel that hired him, because he turned against them and is killing those who hired him. An additional complication is that an FBI agent who is trying to bring him to justice gets involved in the story, so Martin is a prince on a white horse, but in reality he is a paid assassin on a white horse who is fleeing from the law and his clients.
