In a small Kurdish village in northern Iraq, Abdulrahman prepares for his nephew Serwan's wedding. However, the happy day is soured when the sudden news of his nephew's death on the battlefield arrives. While he cleans and dresses the corpse, he notices that the man wasn't circumcised. Serwan was the son of the only Christian in the village, Noeill, and this couldn't be possible. They search for the old man who performed the circumcision, but he doesn't have a clear answer for them, and the identity of the body remains an unsolved mystery.
