The Night It Rained
簡介
n item appears in the Iranian press about a village boy who averts a train catastrophe by warning the authorities that the track was damaged by setting fire to his coat. A film crew is sent to make an epic film based about this incident. But whilst the railway authorities completely deny the boy's existence, the Govenor-General recognises him as a hero. In the meantime, dozens of heroes come forward, each claiming to have saved the day. "Shirdel paints a bittersweet picture of Iranian Society in which truth, rumour, and lies can no longer be distinguished." (Robert Richter)
