Synopsis
Hévi and Walat, a Kurdish-Syrian refugee couple in their thirties meet a human trafficker. They try to cross an undefined border amid an endless environment of winter with spotless, but hostile, whiteness. The man offers to bring the young woman with him if Walat would take another road alone. So, Hévi ends up by herself, fragile, in front of an unstable man whose intentions are little by little unveiled.
