- Synopsis
- Gilda, a movie actress who owns a restaurant is spending one of her most bitter nights. The restaurant manager has stolen the money which was planned to be used for extending the restaurant’s rent and fled. Now Gilda, under pressure for paying the debts, has put her ancestral house as bank collateral. The bank’s due date has passed. Moreover, Gilda’s young daughter is in high fever and her son is concerned about his father who has gotten divorce and might want to marry another woman. Gilda’s brother, who has married a girl to suppress his desire for transition, visits her and asks for help for taking a divorce and immigrate to outside of Iran for the operation, since he is not able to pretend anymore and his staying might compromise Gilda’s film career. The only thing that consoles Gilda is an episodic film in which she is scheduled to act in, and she falls into her different roles in the middle of all these. At the end, the director visits her and explains that she has been banned from acting and no film shall be made.
