Synopsis
After submitting his application to resign, a judge, Ata, seeks shelter in his family villa out of town. When his son, Farhad, a university student, is released from the prison, Ata experiences a cold reunion with the family while his wife, Giti, is filing for divorce. But a car accident, leading to the death of Farhad, and the paralysis of Giti, puts him in a game of concealing the truth from Giti and Vida, Farhad’s girlfriend – just as it has been constantly concealed since the time of the loss of another family member under the heavy steps of history in a country shaken by the public movements from time to time…
