Ahuva Ozeri

Ahuva, considered the queen of the Middle Eastern music, sits at home and makes a living as a cook at a meat restaurant.
She hopes to break out again with the new album. But at the end of the recording, she is diagnosed with throat cancer and undergoes surgery where her vocal cords are cut. She loses her voice forever, but the album is very successful. It managed to cross audiences and becomes a consensus.
