The Marriage Project plot

For 20 years, the 480 patients of the Ehsan House psychiatric hospital in Tehran have lived separately in women's and men's wards, but in 2017 the director wanted to change tack. Despite the enormous opposition, he built a new ward with facilities for couples, because he is convinced that some patients will benefit from a committed relationship. A selection committee now chooses two patients who will form a first couple and hopefully get married.
