Description

The conflict of the film involves the antagonist, who keeps a harem of several women. While no explicit sexual assault is shown on-screen, it is made clear that there is a history of domestic violence, which resulted in the death of some of his wives. Early on, the women are rescued and put under the temporary care of the protagonist. He encourages them to reject polygamy after they are freed from the antagonist, but the women do not comply and instead treat the protagonist as their new husband, even after he openly rejects their advances. One woman attempts to sexually seduce him, but the protagonist politely turns her down. Worthy of note: The women wear burqa and only feel comfortable showing their faces to the protagonist. However, a young man who accompanies the protagonist on his journey falls in love with one of the women. In an attempt to court her, he tries to convince her to unveil herself, but she refuses.
