The relentless desert gnaws the land, endless dry seasons and a vanished well leave the village without water while war looms on the horizon. With livestock dying, most families flee south. Rahne, the only literate resident, chooses instead to travel east with his wife Mouna, their three children, a few sheep, some goats and Chamelle the dromedary. Their journey becomes a stark tale of exodus, quest, hope and inevitable loss.
