Impero ottomano, 1919. La prima guerra mondiale è finita, ma per Joshua Connor le battaglie non sono finite. Dalla nativa Australia, mosso da una promessa, è arrivato a Gallipoli, dove una delle più sanguinose battaglie della prima guerra mondiale gli ha portato via i suoi tre figli. La promessa, fatta alla moglie poco prima che morisse, è quella di trovare i suoi figli, e riportarli a casa per dare loro una degna sepoltura.
