Following a desperate night-long battle, a group of beleaguered soldiers in an isolated base in Kandahar are faced with a lone woman demanding the return of her brother's body. Is she a spy, a black widow, a lunatic, or is she what she claims to be: a grieving young sister intent on burying her brother according to local rites? In any case, she endangers these soldiers as well as herself in the dangerous, claustrophobic atmosphere they are in as the discussion of what to do comes to a boil.
