A bittersweet tale of a woman, who is always looking for an affectionate, caring and tender man, but she almost never finds him. Until she meets “Houda”, and yet she keeps a close friendship with her ex-husbands and fathers of her children, and they all eat and celebrate as a one big happy family who really care for each other. —IMDb
