In the serene village of Naqbeen in the Ha’il region, an unconventional bond forms between two elderly fiancés: Tarfa, a bold poetess, and Hais, a shy man who uses poetry to express his love. Amid old tribal disputes and social challenges, they face pivotal decisions about love and marriage. As the past merges with the present, both strive to overcome tribal constraints and conflicting loyalties, with their emotions unfolding through a poetic dialogue that captures the tension between individual freedom and societal traditions.
