First-time filmmaker Nega Azabayjani explores trans-identity in contemporary Iran. Adineh, who chooses to live as Eddie, belongs to a wealthy family whose patriarch is both ashamed and humiliated by his daughter's wish to undergo gender reassignment surgery. Although the operation is legal in Iran, Eddie wishes to have it performed in Germany and must escape her family's clutches to fulfill that desire. Along the way, Eddie hires a female taxi driver, whose husband is in debtors' prison, to drive as far as the border. The two find themselves in a friendship that focuses on each other's liberation.
