‘Moussem Cities Teheran | A Minor - Dariush Mehrjui’

Nadi loves playing music but her traditional father, a carpet salesman who would like his daughter to study business and help him with his shop bookkeeping, forces her to abandon it. While Nadi’s mother is torn between her husband and daughter, she condones her husband’s strict conduct with Nadi. With her grandfather’s support, hopefully, the young girl learns to play the guitar and compose.
