La famille de Monteria est issue d'un groupe appelé les Kalashi, désormais localisé dans une région reculée du Hindu kush. Les musulmans leur ont promis une récompense pécuniaire en échange de leur conversion. Aujourd'hui, sa famille regrette les vêtements traditionnels, les célébrations, et la culture Kalashi en général.
