Some of them emigrated to Europe or America, though the majority have stayed in Iran. Regardless of all the danger involved, they secretly meet after 20 years at a place which wonít raise suspicion among the Iranian authorities: Mecca. They come from America, Sweden, Austria and Iran to laugh, argue, cook and celebrate.
