It is a window to hear the voices of people who have no voice in this world, many women, men and children in this cruel world are trapped in politics and injustice and have fled their land and now somewhere in this world is captive to exile. They are, without shelter, and the only place they have to take refuge is in their memories, the film wants to be a symbolic voice for them, and show their grief.
The film is a story of a man who is forced to leave his country for some reason without saying goodbye to anyone, including his mother, and now wandering in the dark, struggles to find a way to live, but the migration and sadness of the west is devastating. , Life in suspension.
Young Iranians have to take the risky path of immigration to find a way to live and a better future, and nothing is clear! And there is probably no way back, especially for those who have given up on political activity all the way back to Iran and have to live in a strange world without shelter.
