The Patience Stone

In a war-torn Afghan nation, a young woman watches over her comatose husband, abandoned by his mujahideen companions and brothers, as she tries to keep their family safe amidst a sea of militia. With the help of a nearby aunt who is her only refuge, she nurses her husband back to health while hiding him from those seeking to harm them. One day, she decides to speak truth to power, sharing long-suppressed feelings and desires with the silent man beside her, using their 10-year marriage as a catalyst for transformation.
