“Some poems are only written at night.”
Young theatre actress Mina struggles to play the role of scandalous 12th century poetess Mahsati Ganjavi. Urged to loosen up by her friends, she goes on a night on the town, seeking inspiration. When she meets an attractive stranger, their agendas remain hidden beneath the veneer of an Eastern fairy tale.
