An allegorical comedy, this Iranian film follows the strange quest of four old friends as they return from a ski trip. When Sahar (Mahnaz Afshar), Mammad (Ahmad Hamed), Moshen (Mamoud Kalari) and Jalil (Reza Kianian) spot a giant rock jutting from the edge of a cliff, they become obsessed with shoving over the boulder. Repeated failures only push them to succeed, and their absurd efforts with the phallic stone begin to reveal some deeper issues.
