"A love letter to mothers and daughters everywhere"
Shayda, a young Iranian woman living in Australia, finds refuge in a womenβs shelter with her 6-year-old daughter, Mona. Having fled her husband, Hossein, and filed for divorce, Shayda struggles to maintain normalcy for Mona. Buoyed by the approach of Nowruz, she tries to forge a fresh start with new and unfettered freedoms. But when a judge grants Hossein visitation rights, he reenters their life, stoking Shaydaβs fear that heβll attempt to take Mona back to Iran.
