A teenager in pre-revolutionary Tehran, Massoumeh is an average girl, passionate about learning. On her way to school she meets a local man and falls in love, but when her family discovers his letters they accuse her of bringing them dishonor. She is badly beaten by her brother, and her parents hastily arrange for her to marry a man she's never met. Facing a life without love, and the prospect of no education, Massoumeh is distraught, but a female neighbor urges her to comply: "We each have a destiny, and you can't fight yours." The years that follow Massoumeh's wedding prove transformative for Iran. Hamid, Massoumehs husband, is a political dissident and a threat to the Shahs regime. When the secret service arrive to arrest him, it is the start of a terrifying period for Massoumeh. Her fate, so long dictated by family loyalty and tradition, is now tied to the changing fortunes of her country.
