Shans-Esgh-Tasadof (2014)

Overview

Hamid is a music teacher for orphaned children who, together with his half-sister Maryam, takes a busload of them on a trip to the seaside. They cross paths with Minou, a young woman struggling to come to terms with her father's remarriage. Sympathetic to the orphans' situation, and hoping to provide a distraction from her attempts to bond with her stepmother, Minou invites them to come and stay on her land. As she and Hamid begin to fall in love, other agencies contrive to prevent them in this bittersweet comedy about chance encounters and love blossoming from the simplest of gestures.
