Synopsis

A fourteen-year-old boy lives with his aunt and her aging husband in a provincial town in southern Iran.
Every day he’s asked to go to a neighbor’s house to get some ice.
He never sees the face of the girl whose hennaed hand gives him the ice through the doorway. Catching a glimpse of her becomes his life’s aim.
