Plot summary



Amal, lives in a bombed-out Syria. She lives in a bomb shelter with her sisters and neighbours. Food and water are in short supply. One day she goes out to play and finds a gold chain. She hopes it will be enough to get some food and water. Back in the shelter no one believes her; you don't find gold in a war zone, no one has that kind of luck. The atmosphere changes, suddenly others start claiming the chain is theirs.
