A large group consisting of police, public officials, military and civilian workers are led through a dark, Turkish desert by a man accused of murder. They are in search of the buried body of his victim - only he can't remember exactly where he placed it. So they trek blindly through the desolate land, stopping at the slightest recognition of a landmark only to discover it's similar to a place marker that can be found further up the road. The search continues to be fruitless and tensions rise as the night grows longer. But the conversation never gets tired.
