In the remote mountains of Eastern Europe, generations of women have fought to break free from a legacy of silence and tragedy. But the ancient law of blood is clear: every act has a price.

Sarah doesn’t know exactly what she’s searching for in Albania. From her mother she has inherited a crumbling house and a final, urgent wish: “Find Elora”, a woman that seems to be dead for years, according to the people that knew her. Still, Sarah sees something in their eyes: fear, caution, secrets. What really happened to the girl no one wants to talk about?

Years earlier, under the suffocating grip of Enver Hoxha’s communist regime, Elora and her friend Agon made a vow: they would stay together, no matter what. But Elora longs for a freedom that, her mother warns her, isn’t meant for girls.

In a world ruled by men and the Kanun, the brutal code of blood vengeance, even dreaming can be dangerous. Elegantly constructed and told with exceptional grace, We Are Made of a Storm is a powerful, family saga about rebellion, memory, and the hidden voices of women.
