Description :
Om Youssef, 35 years old and a mother of three children (Yageen, 10; Youssef, 9; and Sara, 6), is coping with the disappearance of her husband. Her children often ask where their father is, and she struggles to explain his absence. She remembers him as the pillar of the family, ensuring they never lacked anything. Now, she bears the full weight of raising her children alone, relying on the generosity of relatives and teachers who sometimes waive school fees. She dreams of her husband's return to share the responsibilities and provide her family with the safety and support they so desperately need.
