When a desperate Grace (Deborah Puette) walks into the Queen of Persia Gold Emporium, all she wants is to get in and out with some badly needed cash and a shred of her dignity intact. Things do not look promising when she comes up against Ehsan (Navid Negahban), a man with troubles of his own who reluctantly works the store's counter under his father's controlling gaze and seems to be in no mood to help her. A parable for our times, Cash for Gold delicately examines the economic and ethnic tensions our country grapples with today through the lens of two unlikely allies and the split-second decision that will turn their brief encounter into something neither of them will ever forget.
