In 2017, 700,000 Rohingya Muslims fled Myanmar to escape genocide and seek asylum in Bangladesh. Prisoners of a major yet little publicized humanitarian crisis, a group of Rohingya exiles are determined to make their voices heard. Between poetry and nightmares, food distribution and soccer games, they testify to their daily realities and exorcise the ghosts of their pasts.
