Iranian author Kasra managed to secretly write his memories, despite being aware of security services keeping a constant watch over him. His writings are about his own story when he was jailed for political reasons, and about events linked to his life of an intellectual in Iran. He planed everything to have these stories published and he is getting ready to leave the country. Khosrow is a professional killer. He is under Morteza’s authority and both get ready to carry out a command of assassination. The murder must be staged to look like a suicide. However, the two murderers must change their initial plan at the very last moment.
