Set in a refugee camp on the Iran-Iraq border in 2003 just prior to the US invasion, the film shows the refugees' obsession with acquiring a satellite dish to keep abreast of America's plans. Thirteen-year-old Satellite, the accepted leader of the kids in the camp, finally acquires the equipment they need by trading in the land mines the children have cleared from the area. On meeting Henkov, a boy from a neighboring village and a landmine victim himself, Satellite discovers Henkov's prophetic powers, which turn out to be more reliable than twenty first century technology.
