Mientras él y otros iranís pelean para llevar acabo un encuentro, los refugiados afganos pueden apenas sobrevivir, ya que ellos no pueden trabajar legalmente.

El jefe, un hombre amable pero frugal llamado Memar (Mohammad Amir Naji), le paga a Lateef una pequeña parte de sueldo semanal, y retiene el resto de su sueldo alegando que es por su propio bien. Cuando un trabajador afgano, Najaf, sufre una caída en la construcción, no puede decir a las autoridades dónde o cómo se ha herido, debido a su estado de trabajador ilegal. Este incidente amenaza los puestos de trabajo de todo el mundo.

Famed actress Susan Taslimi plays three roles here: Kian, who doubts her identity; Vida, the twin sister, a self-assured artist; and their mother, who gives up one child out of fear of poverty, then deprives the other of affection because she deeply regrets the child whom she has abandoned.

Noted Iranian actress Susan Taslimi plays an impoverished single mother who agees to marry off her 13-year-old daughter to a middle-aged man in return for a mare, which will help her earn an income and provide for her younger children. Director Ali Zhekan paints a stark picture of poverty and patriarchy in rural Iran (the mother stores her rice in a container hidden in a tree; her brother, who brokered the wedding, mercilessly beats the recalcitrant child), but this 1986 film is distinguished mostly by Taslimi's increasingly fiery performance as the mother decides to defend her daughter's freedom.
