Plot
Spring 2002, Afghanistan. With the Taliban gone, the country is mired in crushing poverty. To keep his family fed, a father sells his 15-year-old daughter to a 65-year-old man. Her mother refuses to accept this fate and, hoping for a better life for her child, arranges instead a marriage to a man in Montreal. In exchange, she makes a solemn vow: any children from this union will one day wed their cousins back in Afghanistan. Spring 2020, Montreal. The old pact resurfaces. Zarmina, now settled in Quebec society, will not allow her 15-year-old daughter to marry her cousin in Afghanistan. Her unyielding refusal sets off a tragic chain of events.
