Country girl Fereshteh and city girl Roya, schoolmates at Tehran University in the early '80s, become friends. Their friendship and their innocent fun are clouded only by the presence of a young man who stalks the pretty Fereshteh demanding that she marry him. Family pressure once again decides Fereshteh's destiny, forcing her into a marriage with a man she doesn't love. Her friend Roya, meanwhile, is living precisely the sort of life that Fereshteh aspires to....

 
The two female characters in my film are a single person with two personalities -- the heroine's actual personality and her potential personality, what she is and what she wants to be but can't because of society and its mores. -- Tahmineh Milani
