Opplysninger | Første utgave: 2013. - It is 1987 and whispers of revolution travel on the dry winds of Somalia, but still the dictatorship remains secure. We will witness Somalia fall through the eyes of three women. Nine-year-old Deqo has left the vast refugee camp where she was born, lured to the city by the promise of her first pair of shoes. Kawsar, a solitary widow, is trapped in her little house with its garden clawed from the desert, confined to her bed after a savage beating in the local police station. Filsan, a young female soldier, has moved from Mogadishu to suppress the rebellion growing in the north. As the country is unraveled by a civil war that will shock the world, the fates of these three women are twisted irrevocably together.
