It is 1855 and the Crimean War is raging. Lost and hungry, young orphan boy Omar is found by Mary Seacole. Like Florence Nightingale, Mary has gone to the Crimea to nurse the soldiers. Risking her life, and with Omar's assistance, she goes to the battle front to tend the wounded and dying. From Mary, Omar learns about real bravery - and forgiveness.
