Plot
Mrs. Effat (Golab Adineh), a mother of two, receives word that her nephew and his wife are going to be visiting. Despite not being wealthy, Mr. Effat tries to prepare a respectable dinner party with the help of her cinema-loving husband, Mr. Effat (Hasan Pourshirazi), and her two children, Amir and Bahareh. Meanwhile the Effats' drug addict neighbour, Yusuf (Parsa Pirouzfar), is desperate for some drugs after his wife has flushed his stash down the toilet.
