One night in the Maasai Mara, Kenya, a young warrior dreams of a woman, born in Africa three million years ago.  In his dream, she begs him to come and find her and bring her back to where she came from. The warrior and two of his companions will come to Paris. There, she is called Lucy. They will cross the city as one follows a trail. Signs and symbols will lead them to the museum where Lucy is exhibited. Then they will disappear with her to the land of Maasai, where the earth is striped and the sky is blue.
