The camera pans across the weary face of Ceylan, a war crime investigator whose eyes have witnessed the abyss. For six years, she has hunted atrocities, becoming a thorn in Israel's side by exposing abuses. Despite government attempts to silence her, she remains relentless.

'Hey, how was your day?' he asks, offering solace to the exhausted woman who walks through the door.
