In a mysterious and surreal interzone somewhere between Tehran and Winnipeg, the lives of multiple characters interweave with each other in surprising and mysterious ways.

Meanwhile, Massoud leads a group of increasingly-befuddled tourists through the monuments and historic sites of Winnipeg. Matthew quits his meaningless job in a Québecois government office and sets out upon an enigmatic journey to visit his mother. Space, time and personal identities crossfade, interweave and echo into a surreal comedy of misdirection.

In order to visit his ailing mother, the introverted Matthew leaves Montreal to return to his native Winnipeg. But time and space seem to have been inverted in this absurdist, deadpan comedy: strangely enough, everyone in the isolated Canadian metropolis speaks Farsi. And look: like in a Kiarostami's film, two children are embarking on a quest that Matthew gets caught up in, too. Both a declaration of love to Iranian culture and a meditation on the curious geographical and mental space of the elusive giant that is Canada.
