A minor traffic accident reunites two men with a shared past. One is set on revenge, but then doubts set in.

Panahi (Crimson Gold, 3 Faces, No Bears) opens his film as a languid and at times gently humorous road trip, with the actions of each participant keenly observed. However, it is also a critique of the enduring legacy of a regime on its people and the chilling consequences for those who oppose it.

This preview is presented with the 69th BFI London Film Festival in partnership with American Express
