Reseña: Hans Bengler a young entomologist leaves Sweden for the Kalahari Desert determined to find a previously undiscovered insect to name after himself and advance his career. Instead he finds a young boy whose tribe has been decimated by European raiders. Accustomed to collecting specimens Bengler re-names the traumatised child Daniel and brings him home to Sweden intending to civilise him. But Daniel yearns desperately for the desert and his real family. His only consolation is his friendship with a vulnerable young girl who is also an outsider in the community but even this bond is destined to be violently broken as Daniels isolation and increasing desperation lead to a chilling tragedy.
