Parivash and Mahvash are two sisters with different attitudes. Parivash becomes acquainted with a young man named Firooz through an ill-fated friendship and becomes deviated, lost, and vagrant because of him. Mahvash marries her teacher, Behruz, and as Parivash feels embarrassed to get back home, she becomes increasingly corrupted. When she finally musters the courage to return home, she is old and broken, unrecognizable to her family, and is forced to return to her sorrowful life.
