Roy is in her forties and she lives with her husband Ali, in his fifties, in a comfortable flat where she teaches piano. Her life seems well balanced between a husband she loves, her mother and a very close friend. After being married for 14 years, Ali suddenly leaves her for a young woman who used to study piano with her. All of a sudden she has to face another way of living and cope with her new needs. Six months later, Ali who has probably become tired of his recent conquest, wishes to come back home and tries to be forgiven. He is surprised by the way Roya reacts and makes disclosures about her personal life.
Sometimes, in winter, the only way to save a branch from being broken is to take off the snow covering it.
