Inspired by “The Conference of Birds” by Farid al-Din ‘Attar, the film tells of a flock of birds that travels in the wake of Hoopoe, towards the Mountain of Kafh, home of King Simourgh, who can give all the answers to their requests. Between dream and reality, the birds cross the 7 Valleys. Most get lost along the way, except for the 4 of them who will live the experience of as many real human characters: Monika (Albania), Abdurrahman (Turkey), Jihad (Syria) and Susan (Israel).
