Synopsis
'The Maiden's Pond' tells the story of Salma and her returning daughter Thuraya, and their attempt to preserve, maintain and reconstruct their lives, with and against each other. Salma survived many years by protecting her independence, and reached her peace by letting go of any attachments. But the past does not let go of Salma and brings back Thuraya—defeated, divorced, and pregnant.
