Synopsis

Shemroon, north of Tehran - Iman and his younger brother, Payar, live together with their father. After the death of their mother, Iman seeks for a way out of an uprooted life.

What seems at first an opportunity for a new beginning turns into a twisted cycle affecting the family’s destiny.
