Zejneba, a Muslim woman in Nazi-occupied Bosnia, saves a Jewish family during World War II. Years later, her own life is at risk during the 1993 bombing of Sarajevo. In an incredible twist of fate, the family she saved offers Zejneba a chance for a new life. Based on a true story, this inspiring film challenges stereotypes about Muslim-Jewish relations.
