After the earthquake, a film crew arrives in a mountain village to prepare for shooting. The director (Mohamad Ali Keshavarz) decides to continue using non-professional actors as usual. Coincidentally, the male lead, Hossein (played by Hossein Rezai), has long had a crush on the female lead, Tahereh (played by Tahereh Ladanian). Hossein comes from a poor background and is alone; Tahereh, on the other hand, comes from a wealthy family and is well-educated. Due to their significant differences, Hossein's love has never borne fruit. However, the earthquake has destroyed everything for Tahereh, and her financial situation now resembles that of Hossein. Taking advantage of the opportunity created by the film, Hossein boldly pursues his love… The film won the Best Film Award at the 1994 Chicago International Film Festival, Best Director Award at the 1995 Singapore International Film Festival, and the Critics' Award at the 1994 São Paulo International Film Festival.
