Her everyday life is not easy -- there's little money, no modern conveniences, and her husband is away in Johannesburg working as a miner -- but she possesses a sunny nature, and takes great joy in her seven-year-old daughter, Beauty (Lihle Mvelase).
The precarious balance of Yesterday's life is suddenly threatened when she is diagnosed with AIDS and must journey afar to understand and confront her illness.
