In 1979 Pakistan, General Zia-ul-Haq has imposed martial law, and within a few months, the country is decreed a Muslim state. Ayesha, a well-adjusted woman in her forties, devotes her life to the education of her 17-year-old son Salim in the little village of Charkhi, in the Pakistani Penjab.
Silent Waters draws a striking parallel between the Islamisation of Pakistan under General Zia-ul-Haq in the late 1970s and the religious violence that accompanied Partition in 1947, and by extension the rising tide of extremism in the early 2000s that still reverberates today.
