Plot.
Mghila Mountain, Tunisia, November 2015. When a group of jihadists attack two young shepherds, Ashraf, 13 years old, is forced to bring the severed head of his cousin Nizar back to the villagers as a gruesome message. Traumatized and trying not to lose his mind, Ashraf discovers that his cousin's ghost is following him and seems determined to accompany him in his grief. But confronted with the helplessness of his elders, themselves abandoned by the authorities, Ashraf is torn between his desire to hold on to Nizar a little longer and his duty to guide the men of the family into the mountains to help them recover the body and bury it with dignity.
