With this, Salma and Tamer are sent spinning on an emotional road trip exploring loss and betrayal wrapped in this secret past. As the story unfolds the relationships exposes a time when religion was not an issue and love could survive a destroyed landscape. A time in this war-torn country when love and hope was not so complicated, and dividing lines were more diffused.
