A minimalist reflection on how we are born, live and die in cells, and struggle to find a release. This associative and soul-searching journey passes through the Troglodyte village of Meymand, a secret police prison transformed into a museum, a pigeon house, a high-rise residential complex and the largest cemetery in Iran.

 

This film will screen as part of the programme Shorts: Iran - A Sense of Place.
