The work and its context

Cinema Iranica explicitly names both Ghazi Rabihavi and Shapur Gharib as writers, with Gharib directing. Soureh lists Rabihavi under writing. The film is therefore presented with its shared writing credit rather than as a screenplay attributed exclusively to one person. Source 28 · Source 34

Cinema Iranica describes a couple whose marriage breaks down after unsuccessful attempts to have a child. An adopted girl, whose parents were killed in a bombing, brings them together again. The institutional record gives 1988 and 94 minutes; Soureh prints 1366, a Solar Hijri year spanning 1987–88. These source-specific dates remain visible. Source 28 · Source 34
