In the unforgiving sands of Wadi Sakheema, an outlaw Bedouin bandit couple stumble upon a mythical relic that holds the key to their survival, but also awakens forces that could destroy them and their world.
In the lawless deserts of Arabia, bandits Sari and Amira live by one code: chase the desert before it chases them. But when Amira becomes pregnant, their freedom is threatened. A final heist leads them to a golden relic tied to a mythic treasure and a danger beyond imagination. Hunted by Bedouin warlord Katheeb and foreign forces, the pair is torn apart: Sari races to uncover the relic’s truth, while Amira faces Katheeb’s grip. As legends awaken and time bends with each full moon, they must fight for more than treasure, freedom, survival, and each other.
