WHISPERS AND SHADOWS is the story of Ahlam, a Moroccan girl, who finds herself living an identity crisis in a culture that privileges boys over girls. Amid the chaos, Ahlam tries to navigate her ways in her turbulent surroundings, with all the injustice that is crippling her senses and making her starve for love and continuous validation from her parents and family. Throughout her tender life, Ahlam has fought hard to remain visible and worthy. From childhood to adult life, Ahlam struggles to fulfil her dreams by working hard to create her little paradise. When Ahlam meets her soulmate, things go from bad to worse. But despite it all, Ahlam is adamant to change her world, along with her destiny, to make a life for herself, no matter the cost. Will her love for a man, an infidel to her parents, conquer the impossible and lead her to new beginnings? WHISPERS AND SHADOWS is a story full of murmurs from a broken past that is hard to bury and impossible to forget.
