their efforts.Children wake up in the middle of
the night, crying for bread.All of the villagers
feel anxious for the men to return.Mothers are
waiting for their sons; wives, for their husbands
and children, for their fathers.
When Sayali's husband dies at the front, her
husband's friend Jabrayil proposes to her.
The people of the village are furious.Jabrayil's
brothers leave home, convinced that their
family has been disgraced.One brother goesw
