The life-changing journey begins with a simple gesture: beads gifted to Haj Younes as a token of appreciation for his heroic efforts in saving the factory and alleviating the burdensome debts that weighed heavily on Hasti's shoulders.
The question that hangs in the air is whether this flame will lead to something positive or if it will cast shadows that darken every single life.
