Plot summary

In Mardin, Nazaret Manoogian works as a blacksmith and lives with his family. He fears that the war will bring conscription for the empire's non-Muslim minorities, while his family and friends try to stay hopeful, though they hear of men from nearby villages who have vanished. One night Ottoman soldiers take him away to labor on a road through barren country. As the work goes on, he and the men beside him see groups of arrested Armenians passing under guard. An Ottoman officer offers the workers their freedom if they convert to Islam, and some agree while others refuse. In Aleppo, a soap maker gives shelter to Nazaret and to other Armenians, and there he hears that his twin daughters may still be alive.
