Synopsis:

Coming Home chronicles the translocation of two orphaned rhino calves to their new home in the Somkhanda Community Game Reserve in South Africa. For Makhosi, it is a fresh start. For Mpilo, it is a return to the place of his birth. Coming Home shows the truth behind the protection of Africa's natural heritage, and the efforts being undertaken to restore the balance of our world.
