In a small conservative town in Iran a vulnerable man has lost his wife. His daughter, an intelligent 18 year old, would love to continue her education. They live together and get on very well, but their relationship is not the easiest. She is expected to be obedient, take care of the aging father and give up her university plans in exchange for a quick marriage, while a new wife is being sought for him. Sarah is not very fond of the idea as no one can replace her late mom.
