Story

Synopsis

Hanieh, a young teacher, lives in the household of her married sister in Tehran. Increasingly exhausted by her paralysing everyday life and the two-faced reality she subliminally experiences as a woman, an employee, a younger sister, and unhappy partner, Hanieh struggles to find her way out.
