There's an urban legend on Gaslight Avenue that goes something like this: Women who disobey their husbands and choose their own paths are cursed to a life of hell. Zara, a free-spirited woman whose personal choices are considered offensive in a town that values subservient women, is stuck in a miserable marriage. In her small town, becoming a wife and a mother is the most honorable thing every woman can do. Deep down inside, Zara knows there is more than one way to live her life, so she goes straight to the legend. She finds out the truth about her ancestors in the pink skies and returns to her gaslighting town to demand justice. Nada Chehade is a true storyteller and weaves a fantastical tale about a woman who was fed up with what was expected of her. It will make you laugh and cry and do something about it.
