The first time period depicts the Lebanese Civil War, where the protagonist tries to remember her story with her mother, who left her to marry someone other than her father and settled in Japan, before returning back to Beirut. The second time period portrays the present, where the protagonist experiences romantic relationships with people involved in this war she curses. In-between, the mother is murdered, leaving behind a painting for her daughter, who became an artist just like her. Consequently, and through her search for the lost painting, the daughter is also searching for her mother's killer, after spending her childhood searching for her mother's affection when the latter was alive.
