Synopsis

In the turbulent landscape of Tripoli in 2013, a foreign priest on the verge of departure faces a moral imperative. Compelled to assist a group of migrants sheltered in a remote cave amid the expansive Libyan desert, he enlists the services of Omar, a local smuggler with intricate knowledge of the treacherous terrain. Together, they embark on a perilous quest to locate the cave and render aid. Time passes, and one migrant makes the audacious decision to venture across the barren desert, aiming for the gateway city of Tripoli.
