The subjects in these eight shorts manage to hold onto some hope in harrowing and complicated circumstances.
Junid, a helpless war-affected boy, becomes the guardian of his mother and sister after losing his father in the war. However, through a horrifying incident, a suffering akin to a bruise marks his soul with an unhealable wound, consuming him from within.
