Mina’s life is turned upside down when she learns that her husband Babak was innocent of the crime for which he was executed.
Mina’s life is turned upside down when she learns that her husband Babak was innocent of the crime for which he was executed. The
authorities apologize for the mistake and offer the prospect of financial compensation. Mina starts a silent battle against a cynical
system for her own and her daughter’s sake. Just as her money is running out, a stranger named Reza knocks at her door, saying he
has come to repay a debt he owed to Babak. Mina is guarded at first, but increasingly lets Reza into her life, unaware of the secret that ties them to one another.

“Struggling to get by as a single mother following her husband’s execution for murder, Mina is suddenly informed that her spouse has been posthumously cleared. (...) This film explores a soul-crushing wrong that no amount of cash, condolences or guilt-riddled compassion can ever make right.” - Screen Daily
