Die iranische Stadt Maschhad Anfang der Nullerjahre: Nachdem ein Serienmörder bereits mehrere Prostituierte ermordet hat, versucht die junge Journalistin Rahimi (in Cannes preisgekrönt: Sahra Amir Ebrahimi) mehr über den Fall zu erfahren. Sie vermutet, dass die schleppend laufenden Ermittlungen nicht zuletzt von der religiösen und politischen Elite eingebremst werden. Ali Abbasis erschütternder Thriller beruht auf dem wahren Fall des 2002 hingerichteten Saeed Hanaei, der zwischen 2000 und 2001 insgesamt 16 Frauen mit einem Hijab erdrosselte, und ist auch eine wütende Anklage gegen die tief in der iranischen Gesellschaft verwurzelte Misogynie.
