Közelebbről megvizsgálja a szíriai és a török helyzetet, az LMBTQ+ "közösség" két tagja szemszögéből. Mindketten menekültek. Annyi különbséggel, hogy az újságíró Mahmoud Németországban kapott menekült státuszt (egy bevándorlókat segítő szervezet jogi tanácsadója), Hüsein pedig illegálisan tartózkodik Törökország területén.
