I Am a Tenant is an Iranian drama series following Zamane Khanom, an elderly landlord who returns to Tehran after time abroad to find her five-unit apartment building in disarray. At the airport, she meets Masoud, a young man who offers to help her navigate the chaos of her property and its troubled tenants. As Masoud gradually assumes the role of building manager, tensions escalate between residents with conflicting interests and secrets.
