In Kurdistan a young boy soldier is captured by the enemy. The boy pays his jailer – his young cousin – to let him visit his sick mother. The two boys spend together a happy day at the family house where the mother’s body has been laying down immobile in the last two days. The next morning, the two cousins – the jailer and the prisoner – leave the house, pick up their guns again and go to earn their lives.
