Nieuwe Markt 1, 9712KN Groningen GroningenImpressive example of creative rebellion by filmmaker Ali Ahmadzadeh, about a drug dealer who is a listening ear for his clients.
The kind-hearted Amir leads a lonely existence. With his dog as his only company, he drives through Tehran at night to sell drugs. Along the way, Amir offers a helping hand, a listening ear and a comforting shoulder and, like a modern prophet, takes care of lost souls. His customers' desire for drug intoxication resounds with despair and anger. Amir drives aimlessly through the streets of a city without a future, with his GPS as his guide. Should he flee that place or is there still a spark of resistance in him?
