Bicycleran plot
The wife of Nasim, an Afghan immigrant to Iran, is seriously ill. He needs money to take care of his wife, but the daily work that he does does not cover the costs. One day, Nasim gets an offer from a promoter to cycle non-stop, which people can watch for a fee, and he accepts it. After days of cycling, the local authorities start to get suspicious and suspect Nasim of espionage. The authorities are trying to sabotage the cycling so that he cannot finish his race within a week. Will Nasim get his money or is this triumph an illusion...?
