I don't understand Farsi but this spoke to my soul.

You don’t have to understand a word of Farsi to be moved by this.

This Iranian short film won an award at the Luxor Film Festival. The film maker is only 20 years old.

Thursday’s being the day that many Iranians visit the graves of their loved ones.

I didn’t understand the dialogue either, but it’s so moving you don’t need to.
