Through the hubbub of a revolution, It Was Better Tomorrow centers on Aida, a woman who has to rebuild her entire life and does not wish to look back. She spends her time moving from one poor neighborhood to another, driven by the will to find a roof over her head, and takes no notice of the historical events taking place around her. Her only goal is to find a way out and she is convinced that the revolution is a blessing. The film shows the atypical journey of this bold woman in the intense interval of a country's revolution.
