Plot
People living on an old tanker.
Sinekatalog’s take
Mohammad Rasoulof's allegory follows people living on an old tanker run by a stern captain, rusting in the Persian Gulf. Quiet, symbolic and tender, it is a poetic parable of poverty, authority and dignity.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
