Cennet is a young Turkmen girl and the only survivor of the raid in a northern Iraqi village. In search of her brother, she sets off on an arduous journey and crosses illegally into Turkey. There she meets a religious figure who views her as an expendable instrument with which to carry out his devastating plan.
