In an Unnamed Middle Eastern City, Four Women From Different Social and Cultural Backgrounds Tell Their Story. There is Suha, an Educated Lebanese Woman Brought to the Desert by Her Husband; Tamr, Who Must Fight Against Male Rule to Educate Herself; Suzanne, Captivated by the Men and the Mystery of the Arabian Desert; and Nur, in Fierce Pursuit of Lovers (Male and Female) and Foreign Adventures - but Her Husband Has Her Passport. All Four Women Struggle in a Society Where Women Cannot Drive a Car, Walk in the Streets Unveiled, or Travel Without Male Permission. It is a Society Where Sex, Due to Its Constraints, Becomes an Obsession. These Women Are Treated to Every Luxury Except That Which They Truly Desire - Freedom.
