The midday sun hangs heavy over the vast, walled family home. Karim and his ten-year-old sister Leila pass through the iron gates, their mixed heritage written plainly in their features. The air itself feels taut. A wave of uncles and aunts engulfs their father in tearful, joyful embraces, but the family matriarch remains apart, a statue of silent disapproval. Her eyes find the children, cold and unblinking, holding the memory of the foreign marriage she could never accept. The clash between the family's joyful reunion and her frozen judgment sets the uneasy stage for this first, fraught encounter.
