Mosul

In the shattered streets of Mosul, the city’s scarred skyline bears the weight of a conflict that has left both stone and spirit fractured. Amid crumbling buildings and lingering echoes of battle, the atmosphere is thick with a mixture of desperation and quiet resilience, as everyday life tries to re‑emerge from the rubble. The ambient haze of dust and tension creates a backdrop where the line between survival and surrender blurs, setting a tone that feels both starkly realistic and deeply human.

Into this volatile landscape steps a fresh-faced police recruit, Kawa, whose idealism is quickly tested by the harsh realities surrounding him. Still learning the ropes of a force trying to restore order, he finds himself caught in a moment of peril that forces him to confront loss and purpose far sooner than he expected. His raw determination and lingering grief become the silent engine driving his uneasy integration into a world where trust is as precious as ammunition.

Rescued and taken under the wing of an elite unit known as the Nineveh SWAT team, Major Jasem commands a tight‑knit group of seasoned fighters who have already carved out a reputation for daring within the city’s fractured districts. Under his steadfast leadership, the team operates with a blend of disciplined precision and gritty improvisation, embodying a collective hope that the city can be reclaimed from chaos. Their mission, though shrouded in uncertainty, is anchored in a simple but powerful resolve: to protect what remains and to carve a path toward a steadier future.

The film’s mood balances on a razor’s edge between tension and optimism, weaving moments of quiet camaraderie with the ever‑present threat of danger. As alliances deepen and the weight of responsibility settles on fresh shoulders, the story invites viewers to feel the pulse of a city fighting to breathe again, and to wonder how far a handful of determined souls will go to protect the fragile shards of their home.
