Seyyed Hassan, a young seminary student, is preparing to don the clerical attire. But while his fellow students excitedly prepare for graduation, Seyyed finds his doubts and uncertainties start to bubble to the surface. When his formal clothes are stolen by a small boy before the ceremony, Seyyed heads out into town to find the culprit and reclaim his property. As he learns about the people in his community, their plights and their poverties, he inadvertently starts down the path he was always meant for - becoming the missionary who will help deliver these people from their everyday struggles and grant them the hope and salvation needed to reform their lives.
