Plot

The story of a young nomad named Sira, who, after a brutal attack, refuses to surrender to her fate without a fight and instead takes a stand against Islamist terror. SIRA follows the journey of a beautiful young Peul girl, Sira, and her tribe cross Northern Africa’s Sahelian desert to take refuge in her fiancé's village. In the middle of the journey, Sira sees her tribesmen violently massacred. After being humiliated by Sira, the chief, Yéré, decides to kidnap her and leaves her for dead in the middle of the desert. Sira is left to face her survival instinct alone. She gradually organizes herself and makes contact with one of the camp's kidnapped prostitutes, Kemi, who risks her own life for her freedom and Sira's survival. Meanwhile, her devastated fiancé Jean Sidi doesn't believe she's dead and sets out to find her, risking her own life in the process. One distressing situation followed another, and the one last person who helped her to escape is Karim, an undercover soldier. But Sira wants more than just to escape, she also wants revenge.
