Ashes of Hunger (duplicated)

Ashes of Hunger Set in a Pashtun community torn between rural suffering and urban decay,

Ashes of Hunger is the heart-wrenching story of Gul Meena, a resilient wife and mother battling

against crushing poverty, drug addiction, and a ruthless mafia that thrives with

the support of powerful politicians and corrupt authorities. Her husband—once a promising university

student—falls into the grip of heroin during his college years. As his addiction

deepens, so does the family’s misery. Days pass without food,

children cry themselves to sleep, and debts pile up, not just to neighbors—but to the drug mafia

that rules the streets openly, shielded by law enforcement and local tycoons.
