Bassima's Womb

Overview

When her illegal husband is deported from Canada, Bassima, a young Syrian woman, finds herself in a difficult situation, both socially and financially. Desperately looking for a way to bring her husband back, she agrees to become a surrogate mother in exchange for a false passport for him. However, she soon finds out that she is already pregnant and must give up her own child.
