The Photographer's quest to capture a mysterious creature within a frame starts them both on parallel journeys. The city is in turmoil; all eyes are on a naked young man who transforms into a tree by nightfall. As the Photographer tries to rescue him, his own life is thrown into disarray, risking the cherished love he holds for his Neighbour-Girl.
This speculative thriller deals with the changes that took place after the 1991 uprising in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, in which a new generation was forced to watch their society transform without a voice. Like the Tree-Man, they were condemned to silence.
