Overview

In a small, peaceful desert town, residents mysteriously start spontaneously combusting. MIMI (33), a mine clearance company instructor, believes these cases are not caused by landmines, but by a phenomenon she experienced in her childhood-where a deep sense of loneliness ignites a deadly inner flame. Along with her childhood friend DIKLA (33), a police officer in the local station, they investigate the spreading phenomenon, trying to track down who is behind it and stop them from terrorizing the serene town.
