Mahdis, a 20 year-old Iranian young woman wishes to become a model. Therefore, she is in conflict with Iranian society and her family. Her father is an Iranian religious man who is against Mahdis because of his believes and the limitations of society, but her mother tries to accept. We share the story of Mahdis as a model and her problems in fulfilling her wishes. In addition to her difficulties, we also discover the history and situation of fashion in Iran.
