Three stories of love and yearning set in Tehran. Mina is a secretary in a beauty clinic who is struggling with her weight but is addicted to ice-cream. Hessam is a winner of bodybuilding competitions, who now trains affluent older men. Vahid is a funeral singer who has been dumped by his fiancée.

Deadpan comedies might not usually be associated with Iranian cinema, but this Tehran tale of three disenchanted souls is certainly tainted with Kaurismäki’s humour! A bittersweet dramedy, refreshingly turning the tragedy of love and life under a repressive regime into absurdist, touching vignettes.
