Tragicomic parable about how pleasure and enjoyment have been banned from everyday life in Iran by the religious regime. However, 70-year-old widow Mahin, who remembers the gaiety of before the revolution, does not care. After a dinner party with old friends, she goes in search of a nice man for an unforgettable evening: just like in the romantic TV series she loves. She finds Faramarz and to seduce him she bakes a Persian love cake, with rose blossom and vanilla. Intimate near-comb play, with a laugh and a tear....

After the film, there will be an opportunity to talk to each other, in a relaxed atmosphere and over a drink.
