From Oliver Laxe, the Academy Award nominated director of SIRAT, MIMOSAS - winner of the Critics Week Grand Prize at Cannes - is a spellbinding tale of a mysterious caravan tasked with transporting a dying sheikh through Morocco's unforgiving Atlas Mountains. Somewhere in the desert, a caravan is escorting an elderly sheik to the village where he was born. His last wish is to be buried with his loved ones. But death does not wait. Without their leader, the company grows fearful. And at the foot of a mountain pass, they refuse to continue, entrusting the body to two men who agree to carry on and bring it to its final destination. But who are these men? And do they really know the way? In another world, a mysterious young man is chosen to find the caravan.
