Spoilers ahead
In the arid Karoo, the shy and innocent Natalie Jonkers, Nicole Fortuin marries the young policeman Sgt. Bakkies Bezhuidenhout, De Klerk Oelofse, a man whose inexperience matches her own. His awkward, almost hesitant attempt at consummation leaves her rattled, and she seizes his revolver and runs to her beloved horse, tethered near the pastor’s house. When the pastor, Reverend Salmon, orders her back, she shoots him dead and races away into the desert.
Seeking help, she calls on her heavily pregnant friend Poppie, Izel Bezuidenhout, and together they set out to find Branco, Clayton Evertson, the trucker who is the father of the coming child.
