Synopsis:
Ardebil province is located in the northwest mountainous region of Iran. Besides its cold and snowy winter, it is also famous for discrimination between boys and girls and men and women. The villagers survive on dairy farming and some crafts. Many of the young men have emigrated from the village to the city in search of work. Left behind are young, undereducated women who wait for the young men to return. These two short documentaries depict the difficulties schoolgirls in these villages and small towns face in obtaining an education as well as the loneliness and difficulties they face as they get older.
