Maryam loves to knead, and she spends time preparing pastries, especially manakish. She kneads manakish with her strong hands, then presents it to her companions with a beautiful smile emanating from her kind heart. The story did not end here, as behind Maryam's manakish is another story, which is the story of Maryam, who suffers from Down Syndrome.
