A caravan escorts an old, dying Sheikh through the Moroccan Atlas mountains. His last wish is to be buried with his loved ones, but death does not wait. The caravaneers, fearful of the mountain, refuse to continue transporting the corpse. Said and Ahmed, two rogues traveling with the caravan, promise to take the corpse to its destiny. In another world, Shakib is chosen to travel to the mountains with a mission: to help the impoverished caravaneers.
