In 2014, thousands of Yazidi women were kidnapped by Daesh and reduced to sexual slavery. Upon her release, Ana is forced to abandon the baby she had following the rapes suffered. Considered the "bastards of Daesh", all children born of rape by jihadists have been rejected by the Yazidi community. After four years of separation, "Ana" crosses Kurdistan, in secret, to see her daughter Marya again. She is the first Yazidi mother-survivor to break the omerta.
