MON 19 AUG 15:45
A middle-aged man builds a mobile religious shrine
to make money in this darkly funny and moving exploration of consequences.
Confronted by the success of this get-rich-quick scheme, a crisis of
conscience forces our hero into a spiral of remorse and self-examination.
Deceptively simple and superbly acted, this elegantly subversive film
doubles as an intriguing window into the diasporic Iranian community in
Montreal. Cert: 15.
