A Kurdish Peshmerga - Mardan - lives with a great burden of guilt throughout his life. Leila, a young northeastern Kurdish woman comes to Iraq in search of Morad, who has been missing for days and foul play is suspected in the case. Now as Mardan searches in the rugged mountains of Iraqi Kurdistan for Morad, he is constantly haunted by his traumatic childhood memory. Whilst searching for Morad, Mardan begins to realise his feelings for Leila further complicate the situation. Meanwhile Karzan, a cemetery worker, struggles to deal with his own guilt and fear after an accident that sets the course of a difficult path for both Karzan and Mardan. Amongst the landscape of mountains and a river reminiscent of tragedy, these men are desperate to hide their secrets. They may not stay unearthed so easily, but Mardan may still have a chance to redeem himself.
