Logline: Kimia is about to divorce from Farid due to a strange illness, and this process has proceeded in a mutual respect and both are finalizing the divorce. Their two sons, unaware of their parents’ decision, live their normal lives and spend their days with great interest in each other until they face their parents' decision: now the father wants to take one of the sons and the mother wants to take the other one.
