Three days after a disastrous earthquake in northern Iran, a father and son set out to go to a village in the stricken area, to find out about the well-being of Ahmad and Babak, the two young protagonists of "Where Is the Friend’s Home?". Along the way they meet many who witnessed the disaster, even some who had appeared in the film, but still there is no sign of Ahmad and Babak... This strange road movie, an authentic piece of the truth filmed with great simplicity, is a reminder of the hope that suddenly appears even in a disaster.
