Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

An Afghani father weights his family's honor against his allegiance to his daughter after she is seduced and impregnated by a handsome waiter. Wajma was just a wide-eyed student when she first met Mustafa, and it wasn't long before passions flared. When Wajma becomes pregnant, Mustafa accuses her of sleeping around. The volatile situation quickly turns violent when Wajma's father enters the picture, and is compelled to take action. But how will he direct his anger, and who will ultimately bear the brunt of his rage?
