Drama following the relationship between two young women who face the cultural constraints of modern-day Iran. Teenager Atafeh Hakimi (Nikohl Boosheri) is the daughter of rich parents, Firouz (Soheil Parsa) and Azar (Nasrin Pakkho), and sister to Mehran (Reza Sixo Safai), who practices religion obsessively as he recovers from a drug addiction. Along with her best friend, Shireen Arshadi (Sarah Kazemy), Atafeh attends underground parties and explores her sexuality, despite the restrictions of Iranian culture. Believing Atafeh to have a bad influence on her, Mehran becomes determined to save Shireen but his actions threaten to tear his family apart.
