Cinematic Era: 1965 Vintage

With poet Taylor Mead.

Nasser Fadakar and Taghi Bi-Azar work for Kousheh at an institute. Kousheh is not satisfied with their work and behavior and sends both of them on forced leave. The two go on a trip in their landlady's old car and meet Mina on the road. Mina is a famous singer whose aunt and her managers, Sousoul and Abdullah Booghi, are watching over her so that she doesn't think about claiming her wealth, which her aunt, with the help of Saeed and by forging documents, has taken possession of. Saeed wants to marry Mina and receive half of her wealth. Mina asks Nasser for help. The aunt, by hypnotizing Mina, arranges the wedding ceremony of Saeed and Mina, and Nasser, with the help of a man who pretends to be able to put people to sleep and make them talk, and with Taghi's antics, who is dressed in women's clothes, disrupt their wedding ceremony. Taghi kidnaps Mina and Nasser hands Saeed over to the police. Finally, Nasser starts a life with Mina and Taghi with Mina's friend.
