A man named Jalal places an advertisement in a Tehran morning paper. In it he says he will give money to someone in need. Once the news spreads a large crowd gathers. By the end of the day he has a great many application forms in hand. He decides in the end to pick one of them at random. But the applicants insist that the money is the only answer to their problem. The police step in, calm people down and disperse them. Two women, even so, do not give up. One is Setareh, nineteen years old and pregnant. The other is Leila, Jalal’s former fiancée. Niki Karimi and Amir Aghaei take the leads in Vahid Jalilvand’s Iranian film of 2015.
