Taste of Cherry

Overview

A man drives through the arid outskirts of Tehran, his car a solitary vessel against the stark, sun-baked landscape. He is on a singular, urgent mission, seeking a very specific kind of assistance. With quiet desperation, he offers a substantial sum for a task that demands a profound, almost unthinkable, commitment. His journey becomes a poignant, philosophical odyssey, a stark exploration of the human condition, and a meditation on life's most profound choices, unfolding with a deliberate, almost hypnotic pace that leaves the viewer to ponder the weight of every unspoken word and the unblinking gaze of the vast desert sky.
