Storyline:
In the midst of World War II, a boy finds temporary shelter in the home of the legendary Albanian war hero Nuredin Doka after fleeing from fascist persecutors who killed his parents and burned down his village. However, when the same paramilitary unit demands the boy’s execution, Nuredin must choose between his own honor and the lives of his family, questioning the brutal difference between personal and collective interests. Nuredin, a Muslim and an Albanian, opens his home to a child of the Christian faith during a time when one’s name and nationality were matters of life and death in the Balkans. When Nur runs out of options, he is faced with a choice that will challenge his principles and define his legacy. The question is: what will Nur do?
