En un poble en les terres altes d’Anatòlia, les famílies celebren la circumcisió dels fills amb un banquet, com mana la tradició. Mert està a punt de passar pel procés, però la seua família no té diners per a pagar el banquet. Ningú està disposat a donar-los el corder que ha de servir-se als convidats. La germana de Mert l’espanta explicant-li que, si el seu pare no és capaç d’aconseguir un corder, haurà de sacrificar el seu propi fill.
