Sameera, a nurse, a mother to an 8 year<br />
old Ibru. Recently divorced, she takes<br />
up a job in war-torn Iraq to overcome<br />
financial liabilities. Soon after, she<br />
hastily marries her colleague Shahid and<br />
moves to Iraq where much to her chagrin<br />
Shahid is taken hostage by the rebel<br />
army. Appallingly the hospital she works<br />
at is captured soon after. As the embassy<br />
wages diplomatic battles to negotiate the<br />
return of its nationals, the possibility of<br />
a family reunion and imminent rescue<br />
looms large.<br />
Nominated for the Award for the Best Debut Feature of a Director and competing for the ICFT UNESCO Gandhi Medal<br />
