The movie portrays the story of a Syrian refugee in Beirut named Sami, who lives a difficult life in the refugee camps.

Yet, the protagonist meets an American artist who helps him enter the spotlight, forcing him to travel to a new world, while his heart remains attached to the camps where he left his girlfriend 

Young Tunisian actor Nidal Saadi accompanied Bellucci on a tour at Sidi Bou Said touristic area. However, his participation in the project, which will bring together several Syrian stars, has not been confirmed.
