Rebellious New Yorker Leila is trying to balance the Iranian and American aspects of her culture and dealing with the cruelty of her mother, who cannot come to terms with Leila being gay. Then, on a trip to see family back in Iran, Leila’s grandmother reveals what forced her parents to leave for the USA, and Leila, a wannabe filmmaker seeing the opportunity to write her next script, immerses herself in her mother’s life from being a young bride in the 1960s to raising children in the 1980s.
