Havin, the young wife of Zagros, a Kurdish shepherd, is accused of adultery. With her little daughter Rayhan, she flees Kurdistan for Belgium. Convinced of her innocence, Zagros decides to join her in Belgium to start a new life. But in Brussels, Zagros begins to doubt: it seems that Havin didn’t tell the whole truth. He must choose between his love for his wife and the honor of his family. An increasingly difficult choice, which will gradually sink Zagros into despair. Sahim Omar KalifaIN THE PRESENCE OF
