In one of his daily wanderings, Ghassem Siah, a jobless young street dweller, runs into a young American tourist who is spending her final day in Tehran. Without understanding each other's words they strike up a friendship, and the girl agrees to sleep with Ghassem, but he doesn't have his own place and she's supposed to depart by the next morning. Together they set off on the glistening yet hostile streets of the modernizing Tehran of the 1970s, in a futile search for a corner of intimacy, while time is ticking away.
