THE GREAT YAWN OF HISTORY


Beitollah, a man of faith, is determined to obtain the box of coins from his dreams but entrusts the young, non-religious Shoja with handling them to avoid impurity. Part buddy road movie, part existential treasure hunt, their journey stretches from Tehran to Iran’s central deserts, rich in caves. A tranquil meditation on faith, in the tradition of Abbas Kiarostami, intertwining landscape with the human psyche.
