A lucid, at times ironic and totally absorbing essay in which the director shares with us his initiation ritual into the world of cinephilia, which took place just before the Iranian Revolution, while the regime was cannibalizing the utopian dreams created by his children. From present-day London, the director evokes several stories that are subtly intertwined, from a pleasant feeling of nostalgia that seduces the viewer.

History, memory and the indulgent force of cinema: Ehsan Khoshbakht presents us with a poetic and virtuous film that captivates from its first shots, offering us a unique, intimate experience that gives full meaning to the atmosphere proposed by “Pantalla Tarraco”.
