2025 PG-13 1 hour 45 minutes An unassuming mechanic, Vahid, has a chance encounter with a man he suspects to be his former sadistic jailhouse captor, Eghbal. Panicked, Vahid kidnaps the man and rounds up a few of his fellow ex-prisoners to try and confirm the man’s identity. As the bickering group drives around Tehran with the captive, they must confront how far to take matters with their presumed tormentor.
The film is a co-production among Iran, France, and Luxembourg. The film follows a group of former Iranian political prisoners who face the question of whether to exact revenge on a man they believe may be their tormentor. Panahi, who is critical of the Iranian government and has been imprisoned several times, made the film without official filming permission from the Iranian authorities.
