Libya, west coast. Binta and Abdul are hostages of a people smuggler who prevents them from continuing their journey to Europe. They have been sold, passed from hand to hand and reduced to identity-less bodies.
In a revenge of fate, their executioners are engulfed by a moonless night. Binta and Abdul remain locked in their cell, with the sea as only witness of the night that has just passed.
