About
A 70-year-old widow in Tehran breaks her solitary routine and, after tea with friends, goes in search of love and meets Faramarz.
Mahin, 70, lives alone in Tehran. Her husband has died and her daughter has settled in Europe. Her days follow a fixed, quiet routine. After an afternoon of tea with her friends, she decides to change that routine and to look for love again. Her search takes her back to places from her past and to a modest restaurant where pensioners redeem their food vouchers. There she meets Faramarz, a friendly single man of her age. Mahin is played by Lily Farhadpour and Faramarz by Esmaeel Mehrabi.
