Rahim (Amir Jadidi), a calligrapher, was imprisoned when bankruptcy forced him to default on a loan to his former father-in-law, Braham (Mohsen Tanabandeh); back in the city of Shiraz on a two-day leave, Rahim hopes to pay the money back, get his life back on track and regain a modicum of dignity.

His girlfriend, Farkhondeh (Sahar Goldoust), has a plan to sell some gold coins found in a handbag; disappointed by the price of gold, Rahim switches gears, and resolves to find the owner of the lost bag, who eventually comes forward, an act that inadvertently posits him as a hero in the eyes of the media, and exposes his story to intense scrutiny.

Accessible Cinema: Belltable are committed to providing access for all and are delighted to announce that we will be providing open captioning for the 5pm screenings every Monday, where possible, from January 10th 2022. Open Captioned (OC) symbols on screenings on the Lime Tree Theatre website and printed programme will denote what films will have this capability. IFI cannot control what films are available with open captions but will always offer this capability when it is available from the distributor. 

Open captions appear on the screen including dialogue and sound effects. Lime Tree Theatre | Belltable strive to be more inclusive, our hope in 2022 is to give all cinema lovers an opportunity to enjoy our IFI programme.
