It is a poetic tribute to the traditional desert traveler of Qatar and the simple life they led - a life with few complications - a life where there was time to sit and breathe and rejoice in the beauty of the land around them. The film takes the viewer on a journey over the course of a year as the desert traveler follows the path of life the rain has left behind - gathering everything they need, food and medicine, the ultimate treasures the land can offer them.
