Disappearance follows a young couple, Sara and Hamed, who are caught between tradition and modernity. After Sara is mysteriously injured following an ambiguous, intimate event, she and Hamed struggle to find her the life-saving care she desperately needs. Numerous hospitals turn Sara away because she has no father or husband with her to approve of her treatment. Caught at the crossroads of personal morals and the ethics of the community as they face their uncertain future, Sara and Hamed endure a struggle that couples around the world are still forced to confront. The heart-breaking, real-world struggle shown in Disappearance is augmented by its chilling, claustrophobic settings and the stellar acting from newcomer Sadaf Asgari.
