Not far from Timbuktu, Kidane lives peacefully in the dunes with his family. In town, people suffer under the regime of terror imposed by Jihadists determined to control their faith. Kidane is spared this hardship until he accidentally kills a fisherman who slaughtered his beloved cow and must face the new laws of the foreign occupants.
