Curro Mencía, a ten-year-old boy, is captivated by the stories of Africa told by the old Hamish. These tales are filled with exotic landscapes, explorers, vast skies, and hunting trophies. Recently bereaved of his beloved grandmother Uke, Curro learns that Hamish, a red-haired Scot who vanished in Africa after leaving Uke pregnant, has returned to pay his respects. In the brief time Hamish spends with Curro, he instills in him a deep, mysterious longing known as mal d’Africa. Years later, when the family home near Madrid is put up for sale, Curro's dormant memories resurface. The house represents more than just a structure; it embodies a universe of childhood adventures, love, and mystery. It is where Curro briefly met his eccentric grandfather, and he feels compelled to seek out clues that might reconnect him with Hamish. Leaving behind his home, job, and a cherished relationship, Curro embarks on a journey to chase the dreams and memories tied to Africa. This quest leads him deep into Kenya, where he hopes to finally encounter the enigmatic figure of the plains he has long awaited.
