When al Qaida in Syria are up against a seemingly impenetrable enemy position, they send in the Martyrdom Seekers – volunteers who drive a truck or an armored personnel carrier loaded with tons of explosives towards the enemy and detonate the load. These operations are simply known among the Jihadis by the Arabic word for button – Dugma. In the film we follow four martyrdom seekers in their daily lives waiting for their turn to go on the final mission.
