For newlyweds Reza and Leila (Ali Mosaffa and Leila Hatami), domestic bliss comes to a halt when Leila learns she can't conceive. Enter Reza's domineering mother (Jamileh Sheikhi), who urges Reza to take a second wife. Soon, the meddling mom enlists the extended family to help the couple find a suitable bride who will presumably produce an heir. Dariush Mehrjui directs this heartwrenching family drama set in contemporary Iran.
