Naima, a mute girl, loses her mother when she is young. Her father marries an unjust woman who hates her and curses her for any reason. Atris, the village elder, also hates her, while his son stalks her and flirts with her whenever he sees her. Hussein, the doctor whose father had a severe disagreement with Atris, arrives in the village. He meets Naima, takes pity on her, and takes her to work for him as a nurse. Then the villagers are surprised that she is pregnant. The doctor accuses her, and her family chases her, so Hussein tries to save her.
