| Summary | Suad misses her husband. He died unexpectedly during an argument at work, and she never got to say goodbye. But Suad knows she is lucky. Her three children have promised to look after her. After several false starts, Suad receives a warm welcome from her oldest son and settles down with his family in the countryside. Everything goes smoothly -- at first. Determined to make the best of it, Suad makes a new life for herself. This is a story about family, ageing, fresh starts and the beautiful things that happen when we least expect them to. |
