This is a rare look inside the mysterious, romantic and turbulent Iran of the 1950's. KiaNoush is a young man without any convictions in a land of conviction at a time when sides are being taken. He is a product of eastern inner thought and western self-centered pleasure seeking. These conflicting forces are threatening to pull apart the stability of his Teheran. The city is corrupt and agitated when a plot to murder the Minister of the Interior comes to his knowledge. At the urging of his wise and imposing father, an icon of thought and restraint and a relic from an age whose days are numbered in Iran, KiaNoush agrees to thwart the plan and in the process gets thrown into the combustible mix of a land and people in transition from one world to another. Will he remain faithful to his father's wishes or will he succumb to the temptations of a new world of intrigue and freedom?
