Her mother died unexpectedly of cancer two years ago. Since then, Sahar has lived alone with her mentally challenged father Rahim. Sahar has taken on her mother's role. Because without this help, her father would not be able to survive. She has tried her best to take care of him with love and patience but now the situation has become complicated. She is accepted in university which means she has to leave her father in that village alone. The traditional family demands her to give up her own future dream and take care of her father - especially Sahar's uncle who sees this as her duty. The only way would be remarriage for the father. But Sahar doesn't want a young woman marry her father because she thinks it is unfair to spoil the life of a young woman with a cognitively ill, need for care and, above all, poor man. Sahar's wish is to study. She wants to make her mother's dream come true and be a doctor to help people, especially against cancer that took her mother's life away. Sahar is struggling to overcome this dilemma. Should she listen to her uncle and humbly take on the role of her mother? Should she help her aunt find a new wife for her father? Or can she completely escape this pressure of expectations and go after her dreams? See less
