Government agents attack the wedding party and arrest the young groom, whose name is Mohammad, and take him to an unknown location. Kali looks everywhere for her husband and finds her father's grave in the city of Soleymanieh. In that area the Iraqi army is meeting fierce popular resistance and has also been attacked by Iranian forces. It is forced to retreat and while doing so it bombs the people with chemical weapons. Kali takes refuge in Iran with another group; there she finds her husband Mohammad among some Kurdish resistance forces.
