Chad, 2006. The government has granted amnesty to all war criminals. Atim, 16, is given a revolver by his grandfather so that he may kill the man who killed his father… Atim leaves his village, seeking a man he does not know. He locates him: former war criminal Nassara is now married and the owner of a small bakery. With the firm intention of killing him, Atim gets closer to Nassara under the guise of looking for work. Intrigued by Atim, Nassara takes him under his wing and teaches him the secrets of making bread. Over time, a strange relationship evolves between the two. Despite his disgust, Atim seems to recognise in Nassara the father figure he has always needed, while Nassara sees the teenager as a potential son. One day, he suggests adoption…
