About

A woman wants a divorce from her estranged husband, but he will agree only if she finds him a new partner.

Simsim, played by Saja Kilani, is a woman in her late twenties who wants to leave her unhappy marriage behind and build a future with her daughter before she turns thirty. She has met another man who, she hopes, can rescue her and her daughter and give them a new life. Her estranged husband Qasem, played by Majd Eid, will agree to a divorce only if she first helps him find a new partner. Simsim begins searching for a bride for him.

Her plans keep turning out differently than she expects, and she starts to wonder whether another man can really give her the freedom she is looking for.
