Thank you.

It was God's will.

Your father was a great man.
May he rest in peace.

Amen.

Keep him in your prayers.

Of course.

Goodbye, my child.

Goodbye.

The funeral services man will drop by later.

Have him pack up the sheets and dishes.

Tell your brother to pick up the bread for dinner.

Your uncle will be joining us after the burial.

He still hasn't picked up the bread?

He probably forgot, just remind him.

That was for the guests.

So? Most of them have left for the burial.

Weren't you supposed to go with Uncle Nasir?

Mom said I don't have to attend.

You are the man of the house now.

You have to go to things like this.

Does that mean I can have grandfathers TV?

What?

Get up.

Come and help me clean.

Hurry.

You don't want Uncle Nasir
to catch you watching TV.

I spoke to Iftikhar at the burial.

He was asking for his money.

Have you heard from him?.

No, Everything happened so fast.

Well, you know how it is.

The mud on the grave isn't dry.

Yet, the vultures are circling.

Usman called me as well.

Did he call you?

No.

He's a good man.

Better than that scoundrel Iftikhar.

You owe Usman six months’ worth of electric bills.

And he's never bothered you about it.

But his circumstances have changed.

His patience has run dry.

Father used to look after all these matters.

He fell sick so suddenly.

I'll sort it out.

My brother kept a tight hold on money concerns.

I always thought if he hadn't joined the police,

he would have made a great loan-shark.

Fariha.

I'd like to help you with all this.

It would bring me happiness.

If you would let me take
care of all these expenses.

No, that is too much.

We can manage ourselves.

Why shouldn't I?

It's my responsibility now.

I would like all of these
matters to be settled properly.

So that they are no problems in the future.

Anyways, I must get going.

Thank you for coming over.

Anytime.

Stop!

Stop now!

Whore!

Stop!

Mariam, what happened?

I was driving when some guy...

He popped out of nowhere.

He threw a brick through my window.

He was chasing after me.

I still don't understand.

Rabiya, what happened?

Mariam, this is my cousin, Asad.
He just moved back from Canada.

Are you okay?

Whoever did this to you can't get away with it.

Do you remember where it happened?

We'll go with you.

Okay.

You're sure you want to file a police report?

You know what your mom is like.
If she finds out this happened,

you won't be allowed to drive
or come to the library.

Let's come up with another solution.

We can say there was some drunk guy.
And he wanted to steal something.

or...

Or that some kids were playing cricket.

Yeah, that would work.
The kids broke the window.

What's the point of involving the police?

Why are you interrogating us?
We don't know anything.

-She can do or wear whatever she wants.
-Get out of here.

When did we say anything against her?

Asad, let's go.

Don't you have mothers or sisters?

Our women don't walk the streets like yours.

Mariam, let's get out of here.

I want to file a police report.

What difference will it make?

It makes a difference.

Rabiya, if you don't want to come along.
I'll drop you back to the library.

It's not a problem.

Do you have any idea how many
accidents occur everyday in Karachi?

You didn't even get the license plate number.

This wasn't an accident.
She was attacked.

But you said her car was damaged.

-It was damaged in the attack.
-I want to speak with Sub-Inspector Iqbal.

Ma'am, who do you think you are?

The Sub-Inspector didn't come in today.

I am the granddaughter of
the District commissioner.

You will call the Sub-Inspector.

And tell him I am waiting to speak with him.

Got it?

Yes madam.

My grandfather used to be in charge.

If you ever want to meet up.

I'll see you tomorrow at the library, no?

Yeah, of course.

See you tomorrow then.

See you tomorrow.

Okay.

Alright.

-I...
-You?

I need to get going.

Right.

I'm sorry. of course.

Don't tell Mom.

Come sit in the back.

Uncle Nasir called.

What did he want?

He has good news.

That he is going to pay all of our debts.

It's a Godsend.

The electricity bills,
Bilal's tuition and the hospital fees.

It was all too much.

It's great news, isn't it?

If someone wants to help us,
who are we to refuse?

All is ready.

I've sorted it all out with Uncle Nasir.

He just needs me to sign some documents first.

You are not signing anything.

Why?

Why shouldn't I?

He's never shown any interest in us before.

When grandfather was alive,
he never came to this house.

No one gives something for nothing...

Quiet.

Be quiet, please.

You don't understand.

I don't understand?

Who used to beg shopkeepers for credit?

Who would go to the hospital alone

to convince the doctors to take reduced fees?

What don't I understand?

I'm the mother in this home.

I will make the decisions.

Not you.

Enough.

Did the police get back to you?

No, not yet.

I told you not to waste your time.

What did you tell your mom?

That someone tried to
break into our car overnight.

She wouldn't be able
to handle the truth.

How is she lately?

Better.

But you know what she's like.

She blows everything out of proportion.

If I told her what really happened,
she would never let me sit for the exams.

Sometimes I wonder if the exams will ever end.

-And we'll ever actually be doctors.
-Good morning.

Good morning to you?

Some of us are here to study.

Do you have a minute to chat?

Sure.

So, how are your studies going?

Not bad.

God willing,
I'll be able to give the exam next month.

Are you studying for your
medical qualifications too?

No, for medical school entry.

-You still haven't...
-No.

I did my undergraduate degree in Canada.

-But medical school there is really difficult.
-So you thought it would be easier in Pakistan?

No, that's not what I meant.

I'm teasing you.

Oh, right.

Good one.

Is everything okay?

Yeah, but...

Are we okay?

Of course, why?

I mean I sent you a friend request.

And you don't have to accept or anything.

But I thought we had a good connection.

It's not that.

Because of my studies.

And I have a lot going on at home.

I don't have time for new friendships.

That's okay.

You've got your priorities right.

I should get back.
Rabiya's probably waiting.

Okay.

Bye.

Where are you off to?

To get changed.

Hurry.

Hello?

Don't you have anything else to do?

It's only been an hour since we last spoke.

I was thinking of you.

Are you busy?

Not really.
I have to help mom prepare dinner.

What are you cooking?

Bitter gourd.
Or squash.

I'm not sure.

Bitter gourd curry is my favourite.

What's taking you so long?

I'll call you later.

Mariam.

Mariam.

You don't give up, do you?

Even an hour without you is too much to bear.

Are you busy?

No.

The electricity just came back.

Uncle Nasir just left, and I'm cleaning up.

Your sleazy Uncle Nasir,
wish I could have a word with him.

Really?

If you want, I'll deal with him.

I have an Uncle just like him.
Now he doesn't bother us.

So, how's your exam prep coming along?

Okay. See you.

After my mom died.

Her brothers tried to seize all her property.

My dad called his lawyer,
and got him to deal with it.

Do you want the lawyer's number?

Yeah, please.

I'll speak to him and let
him know you'll be calling.

You can give my reference.

Okay.
How much does he charge?

-Not that much. I think...
-Sit properly.

This isn't a Bollywood film.

What an asshole.

Are you sure you can't go to the beach?

No, we shouldn't go.

You mean you could go?

Shut up.

I had already told your Uncle you were coming.

I know, Ma.
But without this session, I could fail the exam.

Hold on a minute.

Hello?

Okay.

Yes, no problem.

Bilal, hurry up, they are almost here.

Did you finish making the sandwiches?

Yeah, I packed some ketchup as well.

If only you had told me earlier.

I would have if I had known.

It was all so last minute.

What story should I tell them?

-They are going to think you are avoiding them.
-Just tell them the truth. I had to study.

-And if they ask you to sign anything...
-Are you serious?

You think they plan on
putting us in a good mood?

-And then hoodwinking us?
-Ma.

Fine, if you're not coming.

Keep your phone on you.
Bilal, come on, let's go.

-Lock the door behind you.
-Thank you, Ma.

Don't be so dramatic, Mariam.

But, what if...

There is no what if. We've
been to that hut a bunch of times.

It belongs to Asad's childhood friend.

Please relax.

-Yea, but what if someone...
-No one will find out.

Asad's a weirdo, but very respectful.

Hello? Mariam?

Okay, coming.

Put this on.

You look really pretty.

This colour suits you.

-You look nice too.
-Thank you.

I bought a new shirt.

The weather is perfect.

Perfect for the beach.

C'mon.

Be careful.

-Are you ready?
-Yeah.

It's my friends hut.

The key should be under the diesel container.

Does he know we're coming?

Oh, man.

Your technique is off.

Then why don't you show me Ms. Know-it-all.

You need to add more water.

Guess you know how to do everything.
Even how to swim in this scarf.

It suits you.

I even sleep in it.

Really?

I'm joking.

When I was ten,

I got hurt on my neck.

To hide the scar, my mom gave me a scarf.

First, it was a habit, then became my duty.

But wouldn't the scar have healed by now?

Some scars never heal.

You just learn to live with them.

I got you something.

What? you didn't need to...

I thought of you when I saw it.

You idiot.

Can I put it on you?

It isn't only meant to be a joke.

I know you can't wear
something that is too romantic.

People would ask too many questions.

And wearing a bracelet that
says "Crazy" isn't strange?

No one will wonder why I'm wearing it?

Why would they?

What are you...

Hold on, crazy woman.

No, no, no.

No?

Look at how good the photo came out.

It's great.

Listen, wear your helmet properly.

Asad.

Asad.

Asad.

Asad.

Asad.

Wake up.

Asad, wake up.

Asad, wake up.

Asad, wake up.

Asad, wake up.

Asad.

Asad.

Asad, wake up.

Brother,

can you take me to Johar?

Have a seat, madam.

Madam.

There is no need to pay me.

I'm just happy I was able
to get you home safely.

It's dangerous out there.
Please take care of yourself.

Thank you.

You're finally up.

I thought you were skipping the library today.

Everyone was asking about you.

And before you ask,

Uncle Nasir never mentioned
any documents or signatures.

The weather was just perfect.
Bilal, tell your sister.

But we got stuck in traffic on the way home.
It was 1 AM when we got back.

You were fast asleep.

The long drive was terrible for my back.

Bilal, grab me two painkillers from my room.

Put your shoes on, we need to head out.

They'll fire me if I'm late again.

Ma, I'm gonna study from home today.

Bilal, let's go.

Do you have grandfather's phone?

Yeah, it's in my dresser, why?

I broke mine.

Again?

I can't afford to constantly
get your things fixed.

You need to be more careful.

Bilal, let's go.

If you're staying home, cook dinner.

Make lentil curry, I'll pick up the rice.
C'mon, let's go.

What happened?

-That man.
-What man?

Downstairs.

I was sitting on the balcony, and he was...

-Bilal, c'mon.
-What happened?

I'm going to talk to the guard.

And tell him what?

Can't you do this later,
your Uncle is on his way.

Mariam? Mariam!

While you watch cricket,
strange men are breaking into our complex..

-Madam, I'm sorry.
-Should I have you fired?

-Don't worry.
-Don't worry?

A man is masturbating outside my window,
and I shouldn't worry?

-I'll go and check.
-Let's go, Bilal.

Madam, I'll sort it out.

It's not much, only tea.

Hello, Uncle.

Hello children.

Come and have a bite.

Bilal, I got these specially for you.

He always did everything by the book.

While everyone else was making their fortunes,

your father only cared about his reputation.

His colleagues were building huge houses.

But my big brother,

Only got this tiny apartment.

He barely saved anything.

I'll see who it is.

What is it?

Madam, we caught the boy who was bothering you.

If you can just come and confirm his identity,
we'll hand him over to the police.

No, not right now.

Madam, it will just take a minute.

What will take a minute?

What's the problem?

Sir, Madam had complained about a man.

We caught him,
but we need you to confirm his identity.

A man?

It's not like that.

Let's go.

Why did you do this?

Men like this only listen to violence.

Now he will never bother any woman.

Son, turn him over.

So?

This is the guy, right?

Madam.

Madam?

Bilal, check on your sister.

-Mariam?
-Sister.

Ma, she's woken up.

How are you feeling?

What happened?

You fainted.

Maybe it was an asthma attack.

Thank God Uncle Nasir was here.

Bilal and him carried you back up.

Fariha, can I have a word?

Yes?

Thank God.

She's looking better.

I think it's the stress of her exams.

Children shouldn't take on so much.

We must remember...

that she just lost her dear Grandfather.

My wife used to have similar issues.

We know of this very respected faith healer.

I see.

He was a great help.

I will send you his number,
and you should take Mariam.

Thank you, I will.

There is one more thing.

The lawyer has finished drafting the documents.

He will send them tomorrow.

If you think that's best.

-I will take my leave then.
-Okay.

What was Uncle saying?

Nothing.

Did he mention the documents?

You've only just woken up,
and already full of suspicions.

Mariam,
not everyone in this world is untrustworthy.

If Uncle Nasir wasn't here,
I couldn't have coped.

He went and got all
your medicines and the nebulizer.

Otherwise,
we would have had to take you the hospital.

Ma.

Maybe it's my fault.

I've been too free with you.

But no longer.
From now on, you'll be studying at home.

Ma, you know I can't focus at home.

I'm your mother, aren't I?

Give me a chance to be your mother.

Breathe, Mariam.
What is it? Tell me.

Come on, try to breathe.

Breathe.

Breathe, breathe slowly.

Breathe, breathe slowly.
Deeper breaths.

Come on Mariam, my darling, breathe.

Mariam.

-Good morning, Ma'am.
-Good morning

I'm here on behalf of
Anwar & Hasan associates.

I have documents to be
signed by Mrs. Fariha Rizvi.

Yes, that's me.

Did Uncle Nasir send you?

Yes, can you please show me your identity card?

Okay.

Here you go.

Thank you.

We need both your signature and initials.

On this page?

Yes, right there.

Ma, I'm not feeling well.

Give me a minute.

This page as well?

Yes.

She hasn't been herself for the last few days.

And last night, she couldn't breathe.

Maybe it was an asthma attack.
She used to get them as a child.

It could also be the stress of her exams.

I was up all night worried for her.

Please, give us your advice and prayers.

Certainly, what is the girl's name?

Mariam.

Mariam Rizvi.

Age?

Twenty-five.

Is she married?

No.

Why not?

I'm waiting for her to finish her studies.

I see.

Tell her to put her hand forward for blessings.

Okay.

Okay

Mariam.

Come here.

Do you offer prayers regularly?

Every ailment is at the mercy of our lord.

By praying, fasting,
giving charity and remaining virtuous,

you can keep your body healthy and strong.

It is especially important for women,

that they keep their purity intact.

One must remember to stay on the straight path.

And remain pure.

I have given the child some spiritual herbs.

She should drink them with water twice daily.

God willing, she will soon recover.

Thank you so much Father.

Bilal, let's go.

What a day, it's been.

Good afternoon.

Greetings, Madam.

You may not remember me,
but I worked with your father.

Yes, your name was?

-Afzal.
-Afzal, how are you?

Madam, I am fine.

whats going on?

I dropped by to give you some urgent news.

Is everything okay?

I came to warn you.

About?

Your father's brother filed
a report at the police station.

What?

He claims that you are living here illegally.

What?

I can put a hold on his file for a few days.

But then it will be out of my hands.

It would be best if you left
this apartment as soon as possible.

-I don't understand.
-Excuse me, I must get back.

That bastard.

He won't pick up my calls.

Ma.

I realize what has happened.

You don't need to remind me of my foolishness.

I was going to say that my friend has a lawyer.

Maybe they could help.

Fine.

Give me their number.

Mariam.

Hurry up.

We're supposed to be at
the lawyer's office soon.

Property cases are always a challenge.

They can take up to ten years to settle.

But this is my home.

My father had meant to leave the house to me.

I understand,
but because of our legal and cultural system,

It is unlikely that the property
will be inherited by daughters.

I will try my best to help you.

But there is also the matter of my fees.

Have you tried to reason with Mr. Nasir?

He no longer picks up my phone calls.
He refuses to meet us anymore.

He's even taken our car.

We've had to take the bus
and rickshaws everywhere since..

I could never have
imagined it would get this bad.

Please help us.

And the car was also in your father's name?

Yes.

I will try my best to help.

Most women are afraid to go to court.

For this reason, you're taken advantage of.

I'll do what I can.

But we still have to discuss fees.

It would be difficult for us
to make a payment now..

Ma.

I think I left my bracelet in the rickshaw.

I'm going to go check.

The rickshaw will have left by now.

I'll hurry.

What do you want?

Madam, I was in the area.

And wanted to see how you were doing.

After meeting you that night,

I've been filled with concern for you.

Well, everything is fine now.

-Thank you for your help.
-No No.

No need to thank me.
It was God's will that I was there to help.

My name is Saleem.

If you ever need a rickshaw, please call me.

Thanks, I will see you around.

Madam.

I heard about the accident that you were in.

Did you hear about anyone else?

No,
But I know the ambulance workers in that area.

-I can take you to go and talk to them.
-No.

I can't go right now.

How is tomorrow?

Yes, maybe.

I can come by 9 AM.

Okay. That's fine.

I will see you tomorrow then.

If you are self-admitting,
we require your identification and hospital card.

No, I'm here to inquire about a patient.

His name is Asad Abbas, he is twenty-five-years old.
He got in an accident...

Ma'am, I need his room number.
Are you his relation?

It happened last Wednesday evening.
He was bleeding profusely from his head.

He would have likely
needed a blood transfusion.

Can you check the neuroscience ward?

Are you a doctor?

No.

I'm studying to be one.

I was with him during the accident.
Can you please check?

One second.

Ma'am,
you'll have to speak to the on-call nurse.

Do you remember what time he was admitted?

Wednesday, July 3rd, between 6 PM and 12 AM.

Yasir Mateen was on-call that day.

He's off today, He'll be back tomorrow.
Can you come back then?

I can't come then, can you try calling him?

My brother's been shot.
Please help.

Ma'am come tomorrow.

Hurry! He's bleeding out.

There was no need for this.

It's my pleasure.
I thought you might enjoy some dessert.

Mrs. Rizvi, as I had mentioned...

If you can't raise the funds,
I can't take your case.

I understand this is a difficult time for you.

But this is how I make my living.

That's why I wanted to speak with you again.

My husband was a difficult man.

After his death, and now, the death of my father,
I had to learn how to look after myself.

If only there was someone,
who could look after me,

and I could care for them.
How much easier life would be.

I should leave.

One minute, Wait, It's fine.

-I need to talk to you.
-Not now.

-Yes now.
-Okay.

Have you completely lost your mind?

What happened?

"What happened?"

Are you joking?

I've been calling and messaging you.

If I hadn't spoken to your mom,
I would have thought you died.

I was sick.

Do you know what's been happening?

His family is in shock.

They asked me if I knew anything,
and what could I say?

I went to the hospital.

-They told me to come back tomorrow, maybe...
-Mariam.

It was so crowded,
I could barely speak to the nurse.

You see, I have these dreams,

in which Asad is trying to tell me something.

He's waiting for me at the beach hut.

I can still save him.

He needs to talk to me.

Mariam, his funeral was last week.

I'm so sorry.

I can't imagine what you are going through.

I've been so worried for you.

I thought I'd lost both of you in the accident.

Everyone thought so.

If you need anything, I'm here for you.

Mariam.

Did you see that?

What?

What is it?

Nothing.

Where is Bilal?

He's gone down to play.

You weren't at the library.

When I came to pick you
the guard said you'd left.

Ma, Rabiya dropped me home.

My phone battery died, so I couldn't call.

Sorry.

Come and sit with me.

After your father died I could no longer sleep.

I would wait the whole
night for the morning sun.

And if I managed to sleep,
I would have nightmares so terrible

that I would promise
myself to never sleep again.

You were just a child.

And I was still pregnant with Bilal.

My father knew of a respected faith healer.
We went to meet him.

On his instruction,
I put away all of your father's belongings.

Letters, photographs, journals.

I hid them away.

That was the first night in months
that I was able to sleep.

I went to meet the faith healer once more.

He warned me that if I
ever see your father again.

I mean, dream of your father...

it would mean that my daughter
is repeating my mistakes.

Mariam...

whatever has happened to you, you can tell me.

I promise I will fix everything.

Did Bilal fill the water tank?

What?!

I think so.

Good.

I'm going to take a shower.

I suppose I'm worrying about nothing.

We will soon be reunited, Mariam.

It is your mother who stands in our way.

Did I not take care of you?

Don't be scared.

Mariam.

Mariam.

Get off him.

Get off.

It's your brother.

Leave him.

-Leave him.
-Bilal.

Don't touch him.

Bilal?

What did you do to him?

Bilal?

Ma.

-Ma.
-It's okay, Take a breath.

What are you doing?

I'm offering an Istekhara.

Do you know what an Istekhara is?

If you are facing a great decision,
you can ask God for advice.

It's a special type of
prayer called an Istekhara.

So what did you decide?

Don't you worry about that.

You just look out for your sister.

You know she loves you ever so much.

Yes, Ma.

My brave child.

Now let's pray and go to bed.

"HE WILL BE PLUNGED IN FLAMING FIRE"

"AND HIS WIFE, THE WOOD-CARRIER"

"WILL HAVE UPON HER NECK
A HALTER OF PALM-FIBRE"

My phone is on loud if you need me.

I put credit in yours as well,
if you need to call.

Our neighbour, Saleema,
will come and check on you.

I'll be home by 2 PM.

Can you cook or shall I ask Saleema
to bring you food?

I'll ask Saleema to bring you lunch.

Let's go, Bilal.

Ashok.

Ashok, there's a lizard on my wall.

Ashok.

Mariam.

What happened?

Madam, are you okay?

Mariam...

What?

Mariam's not okay, she needs me.

-Afreen, can I borrow your car?
-Is everything okay?

-Madam, I can drop you.
-No, I'll go myself.

My Mariam.

Call me when you get home.

Madam, you're looking very pretty today.

All this to go to the hospital?

No, we need to go somewhere else.

Wherever you want,
Madam, I am at your service.

Mariam, her name is Mariam.
She's been coming here everyday for years.

Bloody useless.

Afreen, I'm running late.

-I'll bring your car.
-Aunty.

Could you get Bilal from school?
I'll be back before then.

Aunty, it's me, Rabiya, Mariam's friend.

Have you seen her?

No, she wasn't at the library today.

I know. She's not at home either.

She's not picking up her phone.
The neighbour has no idea where she is...

I thought...maybe...

If you have any idea where she is,
please tell me.

Aunty, I think I know where she is.

We should head back.

Madam, the weather is so lovely.

Why don't we stay to watch the sunset?

My mom will be home any minute.

I'll just wash up, and then we must leave.

Okay, Madam.

Madam, isn't this what you wanted?

Pour it on the hut.

-Ma.
-Do as I say.

Mariam.

Asad?

Asad.

Why are you doing this, Mariam?

It's not me.

You already left me for dead once,
wasn't that enough?؟

Mariam.

Mariam.

No.

Mariam.

Mariam.

How are you, my boy?

Good morning.

How have you been?

I thought you'd called to
give me the house keys.

But it looks like you've barely packed at all.

Although, I suppose the furniture
belonged to my brother.

Your brother, my father
