Under the shadow of the US invasion, an Afghan refugee family begins their new lives in Iran unaware of the ultimate price expected of them as outsiders in this (un)welcoming environment: teenager Mohammad is a promising student; Leila, a woman isolated by geography, and Qasem who bears the weight of his family’s sacrifice. Awarded Best Direction Sundance 2024.
