All the people of Shiraz know the story of heroism, masculinity and honesty of “Dash Akel”. A Haji Shirazi, who once traveled with him and knew Dash Akel’s good virtues, willed before his death that Dash Akel take care of his life and property. Dash Akel meets Haji’s family and sees her daughter and falls in love with her, even though the girl is young. The girl’s love drives Dash Akel to drinking. “Kakarstam“, who is the enemy of Dash Akel, although he has been defeated by him many times in one-on-one fights, nevertheless, he sings songs everywhere in his absence. Dash Akel considers marrying a girl far from manly due to her age and arranges her marriage with one of his suitors. On the night of the girl’s wedding, when Dash Akel returns from the pub, he meets Kakarstam and their fight leads to the next night when Kaka, in a state of defeat, plunges the machete into Dash Akel’s body from behind, and Dash Akel cuts Kaka’s throat at the same time. He squeezes it so much that it suffocates and then dies. The last famous sentence of the movie is from Touti Dash Akel’s words that he bequeathed to Marjan to inherit and where Touti repeats the words he heard many times from Dashi and says Marjan your love killed me and the secret of Akel’s heart will be revealed after his death.
