Eid is a young man from Rahat. He has a dream to become a playwriter and secretly writes a play based on the sexual assault he experienced as a child. He is in love, online, with a married Arab actress who lives in Paris and helps him with his writing. When his parents inform him that they are setting him up in a marriage to a girl he has never met, he has no choice but to marry her. When his wife asks him for a child, Ead makes an agreement with her - he will give her a child and in return, he will continue to have his freedom to create, and be in love.
