An
absorbed and profoundly moving story of the blind boy Mohammad,
magnificently played by Mohsen Ramezani, whose freedom of
spirit and idealism conflict with the fear resignation and
misery of his father, who curses his luck at having his
prospects ruined by a handicapped son - all in the surroundings
of Iran's glorious northern highlands.
