Sobre o filme

Four stories take place on Iran’s northern frontier with Turkmenistan. Alam is a 28 year-old Turkmen man who lives with his father and works in a chicken farm. He is teaching himself English in order to marry a girl called Ana and take her to Baku. Hassan is a 28 year-old Persian man who lives with his uncle. His only companion is his pet donkey and his cassette player. Kazem, Hassan’s uncle, owns a clothing store, but the clothes he tries to sell never seem to fit anyone. A 55 year-old Turkmen minstrel is the subject of a book of photography by a photographer from Tehran. His wife was stolen by a shepherd in a green Mercedes many years ago. This is the story of desperate men, longing, remembering, waiting and absent women.
