Shot on location, it is set against the Syrian civil war and the ISIS (Islamic State) attacks upon Kurdistan.

The film tells stories of daily life on the camp and outside of it. More than being a film on the life of refugees, it is an intimate character study and gripping tale of innocent lost amides wars, a meditation on life, death, war, peace, and tolerance.
