Jag Var Värd 50 Lamm plot

When she was ten years old, Sabere was sold to a 55-year-old Taliban supporter. She was his slave for six years and miscarried four times. She managed to escape and found shelter at Roghie and Hamid's women's shelter. We follow Sabere when she is sixteen, trying to divorce her husband, who is wanted for kidnapping. The camera is there when he is arrested. Sabere tells without hesitation about the abuse she had to deal with so early in her life. Roghie and Hamid also take care of Sabere's sister, Farzaneh, who has been sold to a man for fifty sheep and a piece of wasteland. If the father wants to cancel the deal, the negotiators continue to pursue him, we hear from the telephone conversations. Not only these hard negotiations are filmed up close, but also the many other difficult situations at their hiding place.
