Sahnehaye Kharei is a film in three parts about a discouraged intellectual
uncle who disappears from Tehran to lead a different life elsewhere. He
leaves his apartment to his nephew and niece. The two discover some notes
on various social and cultural topics and an unfinished film by their
uncle. Inspired by their uncle’s ideas and the film footages, they decide
to make a film together. The involvement of the two in pursuing the film
becomes a pretext for the director of this trilogy to address contemporary
social and cultural issues of Iran.
