A piece of jewelry alone can contain the history of several generations. Ruth was barely a teenager when her mother gave her a medallion engraved in gold with the portrait of Nefertiti. Together, they return to Ethiopia and explore the story of her mother, a survivor of the Red Terror. At the heart of a new civil war, they will revisit a country full of history and culture.
