A pilot flying over the Kalahari Desert in Africa throws an empty Coca-Cola bottle out the window of his plane. It is found by a tribe of Bushmen who take the unusual object to be a gift from the gods. But because there is only one it breeds jealousy amongst the tribesmen until the elders tell one of their warriors, Xi, to take the "evil thing" away and throw it off the ends of the earth. Along his journey Xi encounters various "civilized" people.
