Traveler from the South | مسافر جنوب

Reza (Reza Moghadam), a compassionate boy about to reach his teens, embarks on a train journey from the south of Iran to visit his aunt in Tehran during a public holiday. During the trip, he becomes involved in aiding an elderly woman (Qamar Nasiri-Jozani) in recovering stolen money and jewelry. Determined to ensure her safety, Reza accompanies her to the airport, where she intends to fly to Germany to meet her son. However, unforeseen events unfold as the old lady falls ill with a mild heart attack and is hospitalized. Meanwhile, Reza realizes his aunt has already departed for her vacation, leaving him stranded without the necessary documents to check into a hotel. With unwavering determination, he spends the night sleeping in the hospital, and the following day, he tirelessly scours the town, trying to gather enough funds to pay for the lady’s crucial operation.
