The French journalist, Bernard de Lou, arrived in Lebanon to cover the events of the civil war, or perhaps it was a coincidence that brought him to that village, on that very day. Damour, like other Lebanese villages, had been wiped out by bombs. Among the rubble, Bernard heard a young girl's voice calling "Papa". At first, he thought he was delirious and that the one he was calling was his daughter Marianne, whom he had lost in an unfortunate accident. How could he leave her there, an orphan, homeless and memoryless? , , He carried her with him and smuggled her out of Lebanon, and brought her up in Paris, the capital that embraced many Lebanese. Marianne de Lou grew up happy, unaware of the suffering, until she met one of the sons of her mother country, and saw familiar faces in his face, and heard in his voice tones that tickled the strings of her heart, and brought back memories of a girl named Wadad.
