The tale revolves around Davoud Roustaee, an Iranian filmmaker. His extensive collection of films, over 100 in total, faced pre and post-Islamic revolution bans, never gracing the screen. Remarkably, he stands alone as the sole director to craft a film within Iran’s sanctioned red-light district, defying stringent regulations.

Further, he ventured into crafting a documentary on Ayatollah Sadegh Khalkhali, the pivotal figure behind the execution of over 1000 opponents of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
