According to the legend of the Shangaan, white lions are the messengers
of the gods, but it has been years since one has been seen in their
remote African valley. When a white lion is miraculously born into that
valley, a young Shangaan named Gisani, finds himself destined to protect
this rare and magnificent creature at all costs. This young lion, whom
will be known as Letsatsi, is cast from his pride and forced to embark
upon a perilous journey of survival. Close to starvation, Letsatsi
befriends Nkulu, an older lion and together they learn how to survive in
the harsh African wilderness Gisani, who is watching over Letsatsi,
takes a job as a tracker with a local hunter, who has his sights set on
leading the hunt for this rare and magnificent white lion. Gisani,
guided by fate, believes that he must find a way to prevent this tragedy
from happening. When Nkulu is killed by a farmer, Letsatsi is forced
once again to survive on his own. After many trials and tribulations he
finally learns to hunt by himself and grows into a magnificent adult.
But before he can take over a pride of his own, Letsatsi and Gisani must
face their greatest challenge - the trophy hunter- for whom legends are
worthless and rare skins priceless.
