It has been ten months since the arrival of the Taliban. Marwa takes the steps to settle in Germany and takes a step back from her country, its traditions and its history. It is the first time she has been in Europe, and everything in Germany surprises her.
In Afghanistan, the Taliban impose full veils on women. Raha is more and more desperate, and plots her escape.
