Meet the Characters
Karim
He is motivated by a deep-seated need for control and the assertion of patriarchal authority, particularly over his step-sibling, whom he views as his responsibility and possession. His charm and charisma are tools for manipulation, masking a possessive streak and an underestimation of women. He struggles with the fear of losing influence and being perceived as weak, a conflict stemming from unresolved family trauma and his own insecurities. His relationships are defined by a twisted sense of guardianship and a desire to maintain the status quo that benefits him. His potential for change is very low, as he is deeply entrenched in his traditional worldview.
