Among the Hills plot

In good spirits, a teacher, Amir, travels to an isolated massif in Iran where he will teach the children of nomads. Easier said than done: the classroom is a rusted bus, nomads by definition do not stay in the same place and are therefore difficult to reach. Moreover, they do not need a teacher. Amir and the nomads don't even speak the same language. The stubborn teacher does not give up because he is deeply shocked by the plight of women and girls in the patriarchal community. He wants to improve their situation with his own hands.
