October 1915, Salonika. When Rachel runs away from her house to photograph the French ships anchored in the harbour, she cannot imagine that her town will soon be transformed into a bustling human beehive. When Stéphane disembarks in this exotic Eastern city, she has no inkling of the despair she will experience in Zaytenlik, the camp where malaria and typhus “reap”. Even though they say that on the Macedonian Front war is like a celebration. While Rachel's lens captures the intimate secrets of her clients, Stefan's deft hand stitches and heals human wounds. Sure of his beauty, he effortlessly redeems it in the city's café-sandans. An injury, however, condemns him to a life of isolation and sadness. Until, thanks to his friend André, he discovers a group of people, “little gods”, who promise a new life.
