An elementary school sports day gets out of hand. A harmless argument between two children ends in death threats between the two fathers. The collective overload shakes an entire society and unfolds into a microcosm of chaos. Cause and effect of violence echo in a fragile social construct. A distant view of the everyday.

The manager of a docked duty-free ferry cuts the ropes tethering it to the cold outside world and sets sail to preserve the realm of tenderness she and her crew have built together. In a rhythmically pulsating choreography, an alternative universe grounded in more beautiful values comes to life.

It’s an ironic portrayal of Iran’s history by the inhabitants of the city of Isfahan, presented in four parts, and about the wind that sweeps everything away. The narration style aims to recreate the intricate storytelling of a Persian multistory miniature within the cinematic format.
