"An interesting film which collides Tehran and Winnipeg. The Tim Hortons has samovars. All the script is in Farsi. This is a strange version of Winnipeg, which may not reflect the actual city, although the winter landscape is familiar. Traffic is omnipresent as the characters live their intentions and inclinations in a mythic landscape where a turkey is the major plot device to find resolution. "
