Two rescue workers from Bratislava, Matej and Oliver, are part of a major military offensive on the city of Mosul. They are advancing through the city with the Iraqi army, liberating it from the so-called Islamic State. Their job is to save lives. However, they are constantly confronted with despair and hopelessness. This creates a contrast between people who want to get out of Iraq to safety and rescuers who voluntarily leave their families and go to help on the front line. The film is a story of the human spirit, the will to survive, and the courage to help others.
