Pits about 3 to 4 meters deep are dug in the orchards, where wood is stacked and set on fire. Then, the pit is tightly sealed so that over several months, the wood slowly turns into charcoal. In the village, there are laborers whose job is to empty these charcoal pits. Aam Berat, the elderly man featured in this film, has been doing this work for 60 years. He also has a son who was injured during the war and suffers from shell shock. Despite his old age, Am Barat continues to work to support his wife, children, and his son, who receives no support from the Foundation of Martyrs and Veterans Affairs, which has refused to take responsibility for him or provide any financial assistance over the years.
