Ramin flees from persecution in Iran and ends up living in the limbo of exile, far from everything he knows, in the tropical port town of Veracruz, Mexico. There his nostalgia and melancholy are confronted with new friendships, while he starts to rediscover his own desires.

Just brilliant. Fantastic writing and superb acting. The cast really elevates the material and what a compelling protagonist. I especially enjoyed the language barrier.
