Dalil is thirteen years old and is experiencing the horrors of the Gulf War with his family. Amidst the deafening sounds of bombs and the threat of missiles, only one thing makes him happy: Shaima. The love he feels for the girl is the only thing that allows him to make it through each day marked by fear, uncertainty and incomprehension. As the situation becomes increasingly unstable, his family debates between staying in the country of leaving to join his uncle in France. But the idea of exile provokes contradictory feelings in Dalil: on one hand, he wants to leave the war behind, but on the other he can?t imagine his life without Shaima.
