Brother and sister Maeva and Eteroa return to Rurutu, the remote island of their birth.

Tha Maeva agus Eteroa a' tilleadh gu far an do rugadh iad. Siblings Maeva and Eteroa return to the remote island of their birth.

Tha Maeva agus Eteroa 23 agus 20 bliadhna a dh' aois. 'S e bràthair agus piuthar a th' annta a rugadh air eilean iomallach Rurutu ann an cridhe a' Chuain Shèimh agus a chaidh an uchd-mhacachadh le càraid Frangach aig fhìor thoiseach am beatha. Mar sin dh' fhàs iad suas fada air falbh bhon dachaigh. A-nis, tha iad airson faighinn a-mach cò as a thàinig iad, ionnsachadh mun dualchas aca agus an t-eilean anns an do rugadh iad fhaicinn. Le miann airson tìr am breith a lorg, tha iad a' dol air turas a tha gan toirt tòrr nas fhaide na bha iad an dùil.

Maeva and Eteroa are aged 23 and 20. Brother and sister by blood, they were born on the remote island of Rurutu in the heart of the Pacific, and were adopted by a French couple at the very beginning of their lives. Thus they grew up far away from home. Now they want to know their origin and their culture, discover the island where they came into the world. This quest to discover their native land sees them embark on a journey that will lead them much farther than they had imagined.
