A train attendant Mi-sun is on board first time at work and the train leaves its platform as scheduled and rapidly gains the full speed. All of sudden, it stops for 10 minutes without any reason, and restarts. However, when it begins to run, everything is totally different from 10 minutes ago.

I would like also to invite you to screenings of my films which are as below: "Iron Island" (Jazireh Ahani) Worldwide premiere screening in Quinzaine des Realisateurs: On Friday, 20th May 2005, Closing Ceremony at 11:00am, 19:30pm in Noga Hilton Screening in Market: Palais E, 18th May 2005, 17:30pm Feature, Color, 35 mm, 90 min, 2005 Director: Mohammad Rasoulof, Producer: FARABI Cinema Foundation, Mohammad Rasoulof, Abolhasan Davoodi, Editor: Bahram Dehghan Cast: Ali Nasirian, Hossein Farzi-Zadeh, Neda Pakdaman Synopsis: Some poor people in the Southern coasts of Iran do not have any place to live, and thus, they reside on an old, abandoned ship in the sea. Captain Nemat, their chief, tries to persuade the ship-owner and the official authorities not to get the ship back. On the other hand, he is selling the iron parts of the ship piece by piece. “The Iron Island” is the story of those whose ignorance makes them simply trust those who are always ready to abuse their trust.

Gilaneh, a lonely middle-aged villager has to send her son to the war. She must also accompany her daughter to Tehran in search of her son-in-law, who has illegally left the service… 15 years later: again the New Year's Eve, and Gilaneh – fatigued with life – is taking care of her chemically-wounded son and is also far away from her daughter. Incapable of looking after her son, Gilaneh is waiting for a woman from the South who has lost her husband in the war and made a promise to get married to Gilaneh's son… This film depicts people whose love and destiny have been violated and changed by war.
