“Sometimes an accident is an unhappy woman's best friend.”
Young mother Maryam is getting ready one morning, trying to balance preparing her child for the day while her husband begins an exercise session. But then her husband calls out from the other room, trapped underneath a heavy weight he was lifting. His life in the balance, Maryam initially makes a few attempts to help, but the weights are too heavy and stuck. She watches as he dies before her eyes giving her a moral dilemma, and a chance to remake her life.
