Film Synopsis
At the foot of the mountains in Kabul, a war hero lies in a coma; his
young wife is by his side, praying that he will live. The town is
being torn apart by war. When her house comes under attack,
the woman has no choice but to abandon her husband and flee with her
two children. She takes refuge on the other side of the town, in
a brothel run by her aunt. When she returns to her husband, he
has still not emerged from his coma. She opens her heart to him
and confides in him her most intimate secrets. He becomes her
stone of patience...
