Set against the backdrop of the "Woman, Life, Freedom" protests in Tehran, the film follows Iman, an ambitious lawyer newly promoted to investigating judge within the Revolutionary Court. As political turmoil escalates and he is pressured to sign death warrants without due process, his domestic life begins to crumble. Paranoia takes hold when his service weapon mysteriously vanishes, leading Iman to suspect his own wife and daughters. What begins as a tense social drama evolves into a claustrophobic psychological thriller, exploring the deep-seated ideological rift between a state-loyal patriarch and the rebellious spirit of a younger generation fighting for autonomy.
