In Syria, six-year-old Dounia lives with her grandparents, who surround her with love and tenderness. When a bomb destroys their home, they join their neighbours on a long journey to escape the military conflict ravaging the country and make their way to Europe. With the support of Leila, the princess of Aleppo, Ishtar, the protector of farmers, and five magic seeds, the migrants overcome the obstacles that stand in their way to a peaceful, normal life far from their homeland.
