영화는 최근 이란에서 일어난 시위를 시작점이자 중심으로 삼아 이란의 현대사와 이를 구축하는데 사용된 이미지를 재평가하고 해체한다. 집단성, 권위, 애국심, 기억 그리고 역사적 반복에 대한 탐구.

Exiled from Iran after the ban on her 2009 film about the Green Movement, a filmmaker breaks her family’s decades-long silence about a disappeared cousin, executed during the 1988 purges in political prisons.

Ramin flees from persecution in Iran and ends up living in the limbo of exile, far from everything he knows, in the tropical port town of Veracruz, Mexico. There his nostalgia and melancholy are confronted with new friendships, while he starts to rediscover his own desires.
