Esta obra indaga en los orígenes familiares del dramaturgo del Siglo de Oro Felipe Godínez. En ella se trata de la persecución inquisitorial padecida en tierras portuguesas y en Venecia, del traslado a Andalucía y de la inserción socio-económica de unos refugiados religiosos. Otros aspectos centrales son la dispersión y ramificación de la familia en una amplísima geografía por razones comerciales y su ascenso por la escala social hasta el umbral mismo de la hidalguía. Al fondo, siempre presente, la mancha del origen: la sangre cristiana nueva del clan.

En el mes de octubre de 2003, seis meses después de la caída del régimen de Saddam Hussein, la autora inicia un viaje en solitario a Irak. En medio de una sociedad dividida entre la esperanza y la desesperación, la escritora es acogida en la casa de Umm Zina, una mujer kurda que ha regresado recientemente del exilio. A partir de la convivencia diaria, la autora recrea la crónica de Umm Zina. El testimonio de esta mujer representa la dimensión més humana que se esconde tras la barbarie de la guerra.
