Infidels (Koffar) is a film about the Godars—artist-Gypsies living in Northern Iran. The film recounts the four ways which the Godars make their living: dancing, acting, hunting and music, and showcases their dedication to preserve their art and age-old rituals. In this film the Godars sing songs, play music, and tell the ancient tales of their heritage which often deal with their problems with God.
