Lost in Tehran, Lost in Japan

After arriving at the front lines in Iran-Iraq War, Farshad was so frightened he couldn’t move. A nurse told him there was a certain vaccine that makes fear go away. And it did, but after a while, Farshad realized that the anti-fear vaccine was just morphine, and he had become an addict. Post-war, he moved to Japan, gained fame via a documentary, married, and had children. His secret addiction led to divorce. Back in Iran, he seeks his estranged daughter online, haunted by the war. The film explores his life and enduring desire for reunion.
