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.
