- Summary:
- Patrick and Neria, through shared hard work and resourcefulness, built a comfortable home, a good life and family in the city. But when their loving and equal partnership suddenly ends with the tragic death of Patrick, Neria's nightmare begins when her brother-in-law attempts to take everything from her, including her children, claiming that tradition and law are on his side.
