The most remarkable thing about this Iranian film is that it was made at
all. It is an amazing story. Female director Manijeh Hekmat (Women's Prison,
Three Women) had plans to make a road movie of three friends going to Tehran
from an outer province to perform at a coffee club competition with hopes
that this would springboard them to possibly play outside of Iran. This in
itself is interesting because the band is made up of two men and a female
singer, who is very pregnant. Along the way they would have issues in getting
to Tehran. Then Mother Nature intervened in a big way.
