Synopsis
Foreigner Johan becomes servant to Asad Raun in desert oasis city Afdal after being rescued and tormented.
In the midst of the desert there's an oasis city called Afdal, ruled by the Raun family. A young foreigner named Johan finds himself friendless and pennyless in this city, only to be picked up by the head of the Raun family, Asad, as a servant. And after being tormented for his foreign looks, he finds himself in the position of personal servant for the seemingly unfriendly Asad. (Source: M-U)
