Summary:
In this tale set in modern West Africa, a local doctor finds a cure to a deadly virus, a medicinal herb used by the population of a small rural village. He decides to mass produce the drug at low cost. However, a pharmaceutical multinational hears about the project and sends an agent to Africa with instructions to stop the doctor's work.
