Shadi and Ferial are hanging out at the playground in their wealthy neighbourhood in northern Tehran.

Shadi and her mother are summoned to the head teacher’s office.

Shadi overhears a conversation about her future life in Paris…

Kish is a long way, so to get there Shaid and Ferial will need a car. Will Sina agree to be their driver?

The gang are out of Tehran traffic and on the open road...

Out of cash, Shadi, ferial, Parsa and Sina have to make a stop at the holy city of Qom, the holy city.

Ferial's mother calls on Shadi's mobile, not convinced by her daughter's story of losing her mobile.

Shadi ponders her father’s message whilst Sina suggests going for a traditional dessert in the bazaar.

Tired out by their journey and lost in the mountains, tensions rise in the van. Shadi admits something to the gang.

The group are surprised to wake up to traditional marriage festivities.

Sina tries to repair the van and Parsa wakes up groggy with a black eye whilst Shadi and Ferial go and fetch water.

It’s time for Ferial and Parsa to go home, Shadi decides to stay on. 

Shadi continues the journey to Kish. Arriving on the island of Kish she has an unexpected encounter.

Shadi is alone on the beautiful beach of Kish, an island she doesn’t know.
