A quiet journey to a forsaken land where hunger turns the heart into a desert landscape.

A suicidal young guy meets a little girl with life-threatening cancer while a vocalist with stage fright tries to overcome her condition with the help of a musician. This is a film about living and loving, a film that embraces the ordinary.

For their honeymoon, Anna and Mathieu went to Turkey. With camera in hand, they traced the footsteps of Garabed, the Armenian grand-father of Mathieu, who escaped the 1915 genocide. In this country where speaking of the Armenian genocide could be dangerous, their name with Turkish intonations serves a purpose to get people talking about their idea of the Turkish involvement during 1915 tragedy. A road trip across the country leads to a sad confirmation - the denial has become institutional.
