A young man in Tehran on the verge of emigrating. Amid scattered memories, unfinished conversations, and slow-moving days, he faces a decision he hasn’t fully made yet: to leave or to stay. The only thing he refuses to part with is his bicycle – a companion through the city’s streets and a symbol of his past. As his departure to join Tara, his girlfriend now in Italy, grows closer, we learn how years ago, their relationship kept him from joining a family trip that ended in tragedy. Tara became more than a partner – she came to represent the life he was spared.

[Venice '25] The vertigo that comes with the decision to emigrate to another country is reflected in this story, told with a calm gaze that captures the city of Tehran like a poetic dedication. Although it doesn't aim to provoke reflections on emigration or propose political positions in a country like Iran where it's so easy to do so, it certainly paints a picture of Amir's surroundings through the group of friends he meets, something that is unusual in Iranian stories. It's a film that seeks to look more into the humanity of its characters, describing the uncertainty of a young man who feels the melancholy of his city even before he's left.
