He Doesn't Sleep

Directed by Reza Jamali

Fazaeil, a 65-year-old man living in a remote border village between Iran and Azerbaijan, has been unable to sleep for years due to the psychological trauma he experienced during the war. While the villagers do everything they can to find a way to cure his insomnia, the long nights he spends awake allow him to remain constantly available to help his neighbours, expecting nothing in return.
