Released from prison and terminally ill, Parvis Karimpour is determined to be reunited with his daughter, Nasrin, who fled Iran for Europe many years before. Crossing the Mediterranean only to be unceremoniously dumped on the Spanish coast, Karimpour makes for Madrid in search of his erstwhile only child. Along the way he meets failed Italian pianist Fabrizio and spoilt German dreamer Almut - fellow migrants struggling to make their way in a Europe beset by economic turmoil. The search for Nasrin lends Karimpour's new friends a sense of purpose, and the unlikely threesome take up her trail.
