Each time Maryam is able to engage in painting, her world is filled with color, and her joy is clear. Maryam is however unable or unwilling to stand up for herself and make the autonomous decision to paint, until she observes the goldfish, who feels trapped and constrained in the bowl in which it is kept. Maryam falls asleep, after her colors are taken away, and has a dream in which the fish leaves the bowl and makes her dull paintings colorful. She learns of the importance of pursuing the dreams that fill her with life, and chooses to release the goldfish in the pond, within their courtyard.
