Synopsis
Laila Haidari survived child marriage and a traumatic past. In a country offering almost no treatment services despite a crisis of addiction, she makes the highly unusual decision to found her own pioneering addiction treatment center and a restaurant where all of the waiters are recovering heroin addicts. A personal perspective on the global addiction epidemic, the film follows the labor of love of one woman fighting to keep her center alive in the face of physical threats, governmental opposition, and the departure of the international community from Afghanistan.
