The setting, narrative, and portrayal of characters in this film are all enveloped in an aura of mystery. Despite the minimal dialogue and sparse explanations, the film undeniably captivates its audience.

As a viewer, one is simply left to observe this enigmatic space and the relationships within it.

Set in the aftermath of the 1980s Iran-Iraq War, the film takes place near a prohibited area along the Iran-Iraq border, featuring an abandoned ship in a river. An Iranian boy scavenges for resources here, joined over time by an Iraqi boy, a baby, a watchful girl, and a soldier in camouflage. Their silent interactions weave an indescribable tale of enigmatic relationships.

Even without dialogue, the process of understanding their intentions and actions becomes apparent, as they are united in their endeavors.

The outcome is somewhat predictable: it's about what happens when people come together under such circumstances

The film may suggest that there are always those, whether directly involved or intermediaries, who wish for the absence of war. This sentiment could be a microcosm represented by the eclectic group gathered in the mysterious abandoned ship.
