I have nothing to say about the story, since the story has nothing to say! A temporary event/issue starts in this episode and is resolved in the next episode (or two episodes later), and you, as a viewer, feel like your time was wasted, and you don't know what the story of the movie is? Where is it supposed to go?

Relationships are not well made. For example, eight episodes have passed and you still don't know exactly what happened between Hatef and his father? Except those Hatef dialogues while taking shower, which are copied from "Kafka's letter to his father"!

The movie is full of cigarettes. Most Iranian writers and directors are always smoking. First thing in the morning, before eating, after eating, while talking, while walking, while waiting... and this theme of smoking is included throughout the movie. With cigarettes, they want to show sadness, mystery, depression, regret, happiness, cliché etc. Cigarettes are supposed to cover the weaknesses of the writer and actors.

About scenic design, like other Iranian films; No care has been taken. The elements inside the scenes are sometimes from 10-20 years ago! It seems that none of the film crew remembers those days of 1970's? While I, as an ordinary viewer, without any special efforts, constantly encounter goofs.

I saw it until now because of its popular actors, but it had enough time and offered nothing. No more chance.
