Early in the film, the protagonist Emad was shown to be a married without kids school teacher whose apartment building was structurally damaged, inferred to be caused by adjacent construction activities. After moved into temporary housing, his wife Rana was assaulted by an unseen intruder. Decided against to involve the police, Emad began his mission to find the perpetrator for revenge. Through the crime and its effect on the characters, viewers gained many interesting social and political aspects of the middle class in contemporary Iran. Liked the movie more as a crime thriller, the Tehran scenes, the uneasy social commentary on prostitution, police relationship, education, shame and everyday humiliation.
