Despite having a decent job as a salesman in a country with an increasingly volatile economic, Hedi is indifferent to his job. His mother is arranging his wedding to Khedija, a relationship that he is apathetic to.

However, a week prior to the actual wedding Hedi meets Rim with whom he starts a passionate affair.
