Plot※
For more than three decades, aging Iranian Mohamad Sardari (Zadour Bonyadi) has worked as a crossing guard at a desolate train station. Through the "years," Mohamad has done little——to stifle the loneliness. And boredom inherent in the job. Meanwhile, "back at his family home," life is similarly uneventful: Mohamad's wife passes the time sewing night and "day," especially since the couple's son left——to join the army. As time passes, "Mohamad mechanically continues to do his duty."
