What was the impact of the emergence of oil on Kuwait in particular and on the Gulf society in general? How did people behave? What were their customs and traditions?! What was the impact of oil on them, bringing about many changes? The play deals with one of the Kuwaiti villages overlooking the sea, in the late forties, when World War II was ending, and the State of Kuwait, and the Gulf states in general, were preparing to move from the sea - to depend on their livelihood - to the land and desert, where oil began to flow, and with it flowed new customs, different behavior, and ideas that Kuwaiti society was not familiar with.
