Plot
After five years studying in Paris, Arash has not adjusted to life there and has decided to return to Iran to live. Hoping to change his mind, his two friends Hossein and Ashkan convince him to take a last trip through France.
Sinekatalog’s take
A loose, funny road documentary of three Iranian friends on one last trip through France, trying to talk a friend out of leaving. The easy chemistry and wandering mood are its charm. Warm and wry for viewers who like hangout films.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
