Abla is a widow with a 10-year-old daughter. She works hard to stay alive and give her daughter the best future she can.

Abla is getting old before her time because she has shut herself off from life, isn't happy, and hides in her work. She can't show her child love, so she has replaced tenderness with realism. Alba doesn't know that when Samia, a young woman who is very pregnant and scared about giving birth to a child without a father, knocks on her door for shelter, this chance meeting will change her life forever.
