Mom! Are they Toys or Apples?

Beneath the towering peaks of Safin mountain, in the green valley of Shaqlawa, a young woman watched her town rise against oppression. Between orchards and icy springs, Drakhshan Ali's life in Shaqlawa was marked by both beauty and struggle - the laughter of friends, the stories of her grandmother, and the thunder of revolution echoing through the hills.

Through her eyes, we see a nation's longing for dignity and fight for freedom. From the warmth of home fires to the turmoil of uprisings, her memories become a powerful reflection on justice, resilience, and the unbreakable bond between people and their homeland.

A lyrical and courageous testament to place, family, and the power of truth - told with clarity, compassion, and defiance by Drakhshan Ali.
