Synopsis
A journey of self-discovery about Reza, a boy on the verge of his teens who takes a train from the south of Iran to visit his aunt in Tehran during a public holiday. En route, he helps an old lady recover some stolen money and jewelry, and when they reach the capital he insists on seeing her safetly to the airport, whence she's flying to Germany to visit her son. Reza's voyage, however, turns into an obsession when his travelling pal suffers a mild heart attack at the airport and is eventually hospitalized, and he takes it upon himself to raise enough money to pay for the old lady's operation.
