Premise

The story of Once Upon a Time in Iran takes place during the years of World War II. Khatoon (played by Negar Javaherian), a Bakhtiari woman, is married to Shirzad (played by Ashkan Khatibi), a soldier during the reign of Reza Shah Pahlavi. At this time, although Iran has declared neutrality in this war, northern Iran is occupied by the Soviet Union and southern Iran is occupied by the British. At the instigation of Commissioner Rajabov, Shirzad is forced to divorce Khatoon, who has been arrested many times for political reasons. In the meantime, Khatoon, in search of her father, who is an exiled prisoner, flees to Tehran with the help of a man named Reza Fakhar, who later falls in love with her. Now we witness the simultaneous love of Khatoon's ex-husband Shirzad and Reza Fakhar for Khatoon.
