A fascinating allegory of modern-day Iran, the feature by Mohammad Rasoulof is set aboard an abandoned oil tanker in the Persian Gulf whose autocratic “captain” (Ali Nasirian) presides over a blinkered community of homeless families. Following the illusions he holds up to them, everyone blindly obeys his orders, except the young boy Ahmad (Hossein Farzi-Zadeh), his love-sick assistant. The girl Ahmad pines for (Neda Pakdaman) is the property of her father, who has no intention of selling her cheaply. Ahmad's only contact with his beloved is their tender nightly exchange of personal objects through the portholes...
