Born into absolute poverty, a young girl Amangol is forced to shave her head, disguise herself as a boy and go to work as the apprentice of a rug weaver to help pay for her desperately ill mother’s medication. As her master’s cruel brutality and greed becomes progressively clear, her only comfort comes from the companionship of her co-workers, in particular another girl Belghies. Despite the violent and suspicious behaviour of their employer, a deep friendship blossoms between the two girls in this haunting and visceral tale of tyranny and silver linings. |
