Description:
Directed in 1980 and released in 2013, the film explores addiction in Iran during the 1980s. With his father's impending death from illness, Mohsen's father embarks on a search for his son, who has been missing for six months. A medical student who has become addicted to drugs, Mohsen has disappeared into the city's slums. Driven by a desire to help him and deliver his mother's care, the father's search unfolds against the backdrop of 1970s Iran, reflecting the era's social conditions, chivalric ideals, religious atmosphere, and state propaganda. While potentially resonating with audiences of its time due to its religious themes, the film's complex portrayal of addiction and reliance on propaganda are less compelling for contemporary viewers.
