Movie description:
Acclaimed director Abolfazl Jalili offers a compassionate story of a young Afghan refugee who lives illegally in Iran. Young Kaim drifts to the Delbaran crossing on the Afghan-Iran border, where he finds work at a coffee shop frequented by truck drivers. He feels at home in this small oasis of friendliness, though the sounds of war can be heard in the background, violent bandits prowl the roads, and opium is everywhere. As we watch Kaim run from one task to another day after day, we soon realize that we are watching a boy who is being cheated out of his child-hood.
Just beyond the Afghanistan border sits Delbaran, a small Iranian town where the sounds of war flow down from the nearby mountains. Khan owns the lonely service station frequented by a human menagerie of truck drivers, merchants, opium smokers, and illegal immigrant smugglers. Kaim, his helper, is a young Afghan refugee, hardened like the mountains by the horrors he’s seen. Friendless and without family, he must make his own way in an adult world as barren as the landscape in which he lives. Sometimes, as though from an oasis, he is able to laugh and once again be a little boy.
