A tragic romance where passionate love between two young people is destroyed by family conflict and social constraints, leaving only heartbreak and ruin.

Laila is a free-spirited girl from a conservative family who firmly believes in living for the present. Qais, a spoilt brat, falls head over heels in love with her. Their families, however, are warring over property, which leads to self-destruction, pain and bleeding hearts.
