In hopes of paying a final visit to her daughter and grandchildren, Rozhin embarks on a dangerous trip across Turkish-Kurdistan. A loose dog observes the human absurdity.
Rozhin is a Kurdish mother with the vague premonition that her death is imminent. She decides to make one last trip and visit her daughter and grandchildren. For this, she travels across Turkish Kurdistan on her way to the besieged city where they live. In this dangerous venture, a loose dog keeps a close eye on her and the absurd human reality. A magical-realistic film in which despair, belief, politics and spirituality come together.
