Mohammed (or Mo) is a young conservative Moslem. One day, his sexual urge flares when he glimpses the his liberal friend’s (Jamal) girlfriend in her bed. He can’t sleep, study or even focus in his prayers. He thinks to get married but his father, who is burdened by debts, doesn’t allow him.
Jamal suggests that he marry according to Islamic rules of ‘Pleasure marriage’, which allows him to marry a woman for one hour.
Reluctantly he agrees, but ends up marrying a prostitute by a sleazy Moslem Imam.
