This Iranian comedy tells the story of four old friends driving back from a ski trip who encounter a strange and enormous rock on the side of a mountain road. The men’s frivolous attempt to dislodge the rock gradually becomes a tale of betrayal, defeat and renewed hope. The film presents a picture of Iran rarely seen by American audiences, as its protagonists are well-to-do doctors, engineers and businessmen in the throes of mid-life crises. Variety: “Sophisticated audiences will enjoy this thoroughly modern spoof on masculine fixations, played out in frank, realistic dialogue.” Also showing: OFF THE BEATEN TRACK by Leo Bridle (4 minutes). Post-film event: Vermont Public Radio journalist Steve Zind will discuss the film after the Thursday and Sunday, March 25 shows. Sponsored by Vermont State Employees Credit Union. No rating, in Farsi with subtitles, 80 minutes. Film Website
