Marooned in Iraq: The war with Iran is over and Saddam’s air force is now engaged in exterminating the Kurdish population. In the midst of chaos, Mirza, an aging well-known Iranian Kurdish singer starts searching for his ex-wife Hanareh. The film is the story of a nation of wanderers so used to war and its ravages that they take it as a game and console themselves by celebrating life with their music. Winner of multiple international film awards at Cannes, in Chicago, Italy, Brazil and Argentina.
