The story places us in Lebanon, in the summer of 1958. The film tells the story of three sisters from a wealthy family who spend their summers in one of the remote valleys located in the Lebanese mountains. As every year, everything goes smoothly, until the peace is interrupted by the arrival of two French tourists in town and the distant sounds of a revolution in Beirut. The bosom of the family will be affected. The customs of the family, traditional and Christian, will gradually change thanks to the eldest of the three sisters, Layla. Mother of a son and married, Layla ends up opening her eyes to the patriarchy and society, which controls women. That will be the moment that the young mother will begin to ask herself questions. In Lebanon, which intends to achieve the golden age, can a simple woman change destiny and make it different from what men have pushed?
