Synopsis
The life of a Middle-East family of immigrants in Europe.
The father carries the heavy burden of banishment. To rescue his culture, his traditions, is
mandatory, so he remains faithful to his past, his origins, to himself.
His daughter is now a grown-up. He worries and wishes she would get married soon.
The young woman leaves the family home every morning, but changes her clothes in a bar
before she goes to work, her hair down.
She puzzles the young boss of the company that employs her. He fell in love and is ready to
do anything to marry her. But the young woman keeps her freedom of choice, just like her
mother had done with her father.
She won’t have time to introduce the only man for her to her parents. A friend of her
father’s catches them. In a cafe.
