In a small village in Afghanistan, young Salma is elated to wake up and make the most of each day. Accompanied by her best friend, Lale, Salma is often in pursuit of adventure, especially when it involves buzkashi, a traditional sport in her country that Salma has always been drawn to. Surrounded by a colorful and close knit family as well as lifelong friendships in her community, Salma's life is perfect. Almost.
As valuable as her time is spent living in the present, Salma has a history she cannot fully escape. A dark mystery around her parents' passing that stands unspoken and brushed away by her grandparents and her aunt, Khala Shala. Secrets that aren't meant to be told. Any mention of her parents are only spoken in whispers.
Will Salma continue through the motions of each day, not prying or ruffling feathers?
Or has the time come for her to know the truth?
A small and spirited group of friends encourage Salma and provide constant company through her daring adventures and need to uncover secrets that may be better left untold.
