It's Yalda, the longest night of the year. Pardis, a young German-Iranian filmmaker, is invited to her hometown of Berlin to present her new short film at a festival. But what should be an evening of celebration becomes increasingly awkward when she is thrown off track by a question from an older woman in the audience, "Is your cinema Iranian?" Shaken to the core, Pardis begins to wander the city in search of her lost identity.
