Hyvästi Afrikka plot

"A story about friendship and empowerment"

Riitta, 66, from Finland, and Catherina, 63, from Uganda, have one thing in common: work, a shared home, and a sense of humor. Riitta has been working in relief efforts in Uganda for over 25 years and it will soon be time for her to retire and return to Finland. Before that, Riitta and Catherine will invite religious leaders to a course in which they challenge priests and imams to an open, taboo-breaking discussion about women's rights to their bodies, sexuality and lives. However, Riitta and Catherine are soon told that serious allegations have been made against them, written in an anonymous letter addressed to the Ugandan parliament. This puts their entire life's work in jeopardy.
