The adaptation of Rachid Benzine’s novel is an epistolary theatrical work which tells about the exchanges between a father, a practicing Muslim intellectual who lives his religion as a message of peace and love, and his daughter Nour, 20 years old, who decides to leave behind her home, country and friends to meet up with her husband in Iraq, who turns out to be an officer in Daesh.
