Haaji Morteza lives with his wife and closest relatives in Tehran. As his wife, Ashraf Khanum, cannot have a child, his mother decides to find him a second wife. Her sights are set on Faati, the stunning but evil-tempered daughter of a bath house attendant. Haaji Morteza, secretly lusting after Faati’s charms, finally, with her consent, marries Faati. Haaji orders a carpenter to make an extra-large bed for three people. The first night in the bed ends up with the two wives fighting over who is going to enjoy his body first. Haaji convinces Ashraf Khanum that he should sleep one night with Faati in a separate room and another with her. Faati wants the Haaji all to herself. After a chum recommends some sexual-potency enhancement potions, Faati soon falls pregnant and becomes the favourite wife. Ashraf Khanum, ignored by Haaji, resigns herself to the fate of a woman cast aside by him, finding solace in Islamic rituals. One day a squabble breaks out in the house between the other women and Faati over household chores. Bent on revenge, Faati asks her snake-charmer father for help. Soon things take a catastrophic turn ...
