Burqa

In a conservative Muslim society, a young widow named Najma finds herself trapped in a life of grief and oppression after her husband's unexpected passing. As she navigates the strict rules of her 'iddah period, Najma begins to question the suffocating traditions that govern her life. But it's not until she meets a mysterious stranger named Surya that she finds the courage to break free from her constraints and discover a newfound sense of hope and self-determination. Through their poignant and thought-provoking conversation, Najma embarks on a transformative journey of self-discovery, challenging the societal norms that have held her back for so long.
