In fact, Amar drinks alcohol a bit too much - which is forbidden by Islam - and it is this which begins to put their relationship under strain.

But her fears for their future increase when Amar takes on a well-paid job in a Muslim community hours away from where they live.

Only after quite some time has elapsed during which they have had no contact with each other, is Luna allowed to visit Amar in this community of conservative Wahhabis in its idyllic lakeside location.

Amar claims that his only interest is to become a better person, but Luna finds it extremely difficult to follow his line of thinking.

As the wounds of a tragic war-filled past continue to haunt her, Luna tears herself apart searching if love is truly enough to keep her and Amar together on the path to a lifetime of happiness.
