The Jungle

In Istanbul, Omar and his two daughters struggle for their lives after fleeing the war in Syria. The only source of income he could find is catching stray animals and selling them to Fahri, the pet shop owner. One day, however, Fahri comes to Omar with a strange request; he wants Omar to catch snakes in the forest at the outskirts of the city.
