Sam has been married to his wife Olive for 4 years. They have both been trying for a baby all this time without any result. Sam is being pressured by his community to marry another woman. If your first wife cannot conceive a baby within the first 3 years of marriage, it is expected that the husband seek another. This is where Ros comes in. Olive is not handling this union well, although she's agreed to it and has always grown up in this culture, the thought of Sam being with another woman fills her with sadness and disgust. Sam just has to convince Olive that Ros is nothing more than an obligation, while she, Olive is the only woman he ever wants. The distinction matters. Or does it?
