An Iranian family living in political exile in Europe and America decides to organize a secret meeting with the rest of the family, which still lives in Iran and which they haven’t seen for more than 20 years. The only place that proves to be possible for this meeting is Saudi Arabia. Despite all the dangers, the family members living in exile pretend to be Muslim pilgrims in order to be allowed to enter the holy cities of Medina and Mecca. There, in a small hotel room the long awaited, tearful reunion takes place after 20 years of separation. It proves to be a huge culture clash, not without humor, between the Muslim world and the western societies of Europe and America.
