Mahmoud, who has a great interest in filmmaking, has written a script called "The Scorpion". It is the story of a young man who plunders into a jewelry store with the cooperation of his fiancee and his friend. Later, in order to seize the jewels alone, he takes them to a telecabin site and hides them. But the day he goes to grab the jewelry, he gets caught, so he commits suicide. When Mahmoud realizes that his efforts in writing the script is not going to result, he ends up trying to create the story of his screenplay in real life with the help of his fiancee and his friend, Hassan. But the end of their story is different than that of the screenplay.
