Six women each live for a month with six different tribes all over the world. Like many women today, juggling with the pressures of Western life from careers to home and family, they all think something is missing. By spending time with tribes where women's roles are very different, they hope they can find some answers, and in doing so, change their own lives.

The Afar are one of Ethiopia's most fiercely independent tribes, nomadic cattle and camel herders with a tough reputation, carrying guns to protect their herds from rival clans and wild animals.
