When Mahboubeh, a woman in her thirties, decides to rent out her home to a film crew for six days, her tranquil and solitary existence is suddenly upended. Intrigued by the group’s interactions and inspired by the storyline of their short film, Mahboubeh finds herself compelled to confront unresolved aspects of her past.
