This film unveils a hidden history starting in the Dutch East Indies under Japanese occupation during WW2. The protagonists were born of Eurasian (some local) mothers and Japanese fathers as children of the enemy. They moved to the Netherlands with their mothers, while their fathers went back to Japan after the war. The absence of their fathers becomes a missing piece in their lives, and the ensuing search stretches across continents. One of the protagonists, Nippy Noya, is an international percussionist, recording with John McLaughlin and touring with Billy Cobham and Chaka Khan. He discovers the secret of his musical gift as the other protagonists each experience their own emotional rebirth.
