Set in the fictional African village of Kosawa, How Beautiful We Were tells the story of a people living in fear amidst environmental degradation wrought by an American oil company. Pipeline spills have rendered farmlands infertile. Children are dying from drinking toxic water. Promises of clean-up and financial reparations to the villagers are made-and ignored. The country's government, led by a brazen dictator, exists to serve its own interest only. Left with few choices, the people of Kosawa decide to fight back.

Die Bewohner von Kosawa leben in Angst, denn ein amerikanischer Ölkonzern droht das kleine afrikanische Dorf auszulöschen. Öllecks haben das Ackerland unfruchtbar gemacht; Kinder sterben, weil das Trinkwasser vergiftet ist. Den Menschen aus Kosawa werden Versprechungen über Aufräumarbeiten und finanzielle Reparationen gemacht, die nie eingehalten werden, aber die korrupte Regierung bedient nur ihre eigenen Interessen. Die Dorfbewohner beschließen, sich zu wehren. Ihr Kampf soll Jahrzehnte andauern.
