Simsim plot

"To break free from a forced marriage, Simsim hunts for her own replacement, but what she finds instead is her true self."

At 26, Simsim is determined to escape a marriage she never chose. Restless and self-assured, she uses her job at a photo studio not only to support her daughter and mother, but also as a place to flirt, connect, and regain her self-esteem. Although estranged from her husband, Qasem, he refuses to grant her a divorce. When he finally agrees—on the bizarre condition that she find him a new wife—Simsim plunges headlong into a surreal quest.
