- Mahrokh, a young, lively, and pious woman, is four months pregnant. Her husband, Kamran, dreams of living in Europe. Therefore, Mahrokh is obliged to obey her husband and move with him to Europe. Kamran has sold all their belongings and given the money to human traffickers to make forged documents, including passport and visa for them. Meanwhile, the Ultrasound scan report shows Mahrokh is having a girl. Although, she has got pregnant in her husband's force in order to increase their chance of acquiring European citizenship, she has developed deep affection for the baby. Mahrokh and Narmin, the Kurdish neighbor, find a European name for the baby. Mahrokh decides to show the scan report to her husband, but his mobile phone has been off since morning. Therefore, she goes to the factory where her husband works as a worker. Her husband reacts coldly to the news. On their way back, he tells her confusedly and anxiously that the human trafficker is arrested and their forged documents are discovered by the police. Now, they can neither leave the country with their forged documents by plane, nor stay there due to the possibility of being arrested by the police.

Kamran who is determined to leave the country under any circumstances, tries to convince Mahrokh to have an illegal abortion. Now, it is up to Mahrokh either to stay without her husband and raise her child in prison, or to ignore her religious beliefs and maternal bond in order to flee the country with her husband.
