An Arab tale inspired by the mythical character of Shrah, Goha is a poor, naïve, and ignorant boy, who knows nothing of life; he seems to pursue his shadow instead of working to become a man. Driven on by his peers, the wisest of the wise, the great Taj El Ouloum asks for the hand of the young and beautiful Fulla. Very soon the young woman gets bored in the house of her old husband. It is at that moment that Goha passes under her window, talking to his donkey...
