The mother of the Tunisian filmmaker Fatma Riahi offered temporary shelter to a family in need: a Bosnian woman, Marcida, who had fled with her young daughters from Sidi Bouzid to Tunis and had nowhere to live. Her husband, Tawfik, had been arrested and convicted on terrorism charges. The family was to stay with Riahi for a few days. In the end they stayed for four years, and then they disappeared. She has heard nothing from them since. A decade later, Riahi is curious about what has happened to them, so she goes in search of the cheerful daughters who were once part of her family life.
