Giuseppina Pasqualino di Marineo (known as Pippa Bacca) was an Italian artist who, wearing a symbolic wedding dress embarked on a hitch-hiking expedition from Rome to the Middle-East to promote world peace and renewed trust in people. In 2008, she disappeared outside Istanbul. Her raped body was later recovered. In this road documentary, Kurdish director Bingöl Elmas picks up the peace torch where the young Italian artist and peace activist left off, and undertakes to continue the journey.
