Amidst the era of the coronavirus, social distancing has created a sense of isolation among people. A letter—from a strange-looking teenager dressed in ragged clothing—has triggered memories of Adam, a Kurdish doctor residing in the UK. These recollections harken back to decades ago when the blood of a teenage girl named Naz was spilt in the name of her family’s supposed honour. This tragic event held everyone captive like a curse, with its haunting presence lingering until death. Following this tragedy, subsequent misfortunes began to unfold like a chain reaction. The webs of imagination and reminiscence became activated, with themes of love, sex, loyalty, and friendship transcending national borders. While the blood may have dried, its memory persists and never fades. The paths taken by these individuals do not culminate in death. Instead, their stories and memories weave together to form one continuous tale.
