Episode synopsis
After a long preparation, there is the green light to cross the border with South Sudan. During the filming, a civil war is still raging. Waldemar goes in search of the mythical cow herders, who traditionally travel with their thousands of cows. In many parts of Africa the cow is sacred and protected for life. Unfortunately, with the advent of weapons, there are more and more bloody conflicts surrounding cows, if only because in these regions the cow is still seen as the most precious possession and also your bank. In Northern Uganda, Waldemar meets Father Raphael, who tries to create peace as a peace negotiator.
