Atafeh and Shireen are best friends. Like many Tehrani youths, they socialize in underground party circuits inspired by western music and films. Shireen, who lives with her conservative uncle, latches on to Atafeh’s progressive world, living a double-life allowing her and Atafeh greater social and sexual freedoms. Atafeh’s brother, on the other hand, newly returned from a rehab clinic, turns to religion to make sense of the world around him. When he starts to develop feelings for Shireen, the dynamic between the three is shaken up with drastic consequences.
