Mani and Sina 19-year-olds have been friends for a long time. Sina has low self-esteem and is mentally dependent on Mani. In a car accident, Mani is killed and Sina is severely injured. At first, everyone thinks that Mani was behind the wheel because Sina is not certified. This incident provides the ground for the fathers of these two young men to take a step towards proving their claim, knowing more about their children and realizing their own negligence.
