What begins as a minor accident sets in motion a series of escalating consequences. A man named Eghbal is driving at night with his pregnant wife when he hits and kills a dog. The accident badly damages his engine and causes the car to break down shortly thereafter. He pulls over to a nearby garage owned by Vahid, who notices that the man resembles the officer who tortured him in prison and ruined his life.
