The Wind Will Carry Us

Starring: Behzad Dorani, Noghre Asadi, Roushan Karam Elmi, et al.

The film follows the changes in the daily routines of the inhabitants of a mountain village after a small group of outsiders arrives, claiming to be "communication engineers." As the deceptive story unfolds, we learn that the mysterious strangers are on a secret mission: They are a television crew sent from Tehran to await the death of an old woman in order to cover the funeral practices of the village. But the village operates on its own schedule, forcing the TV crew to remain much longer than planned. The leader of the crew (Behzad Dorani) winds up spending much of his time adjusting to this strange place, becoming acquainted with its unique residents - and finding himself torn between wanting the old woman to die so he can finish his project and go home and hoping for her recovery.
