In 2008, Asadagha's parents were killed in their home by American soldiers who had been told that terrorists were living there. Now, Asadagha and his two younger sisters are orphans and homeless. They have been staying with their uncle, but he tells them he can't afford to house them anymore. It takes more than this to beat down the three brave siblings.
The film is one of five short films in "Faith Hope Afghanistan", a series of portraits of Afghan children in Kabul and the ups and downs of life in the shadow of war.
