Ali Akbar and Marzieh have lived a full life. They carry hundreds of poems in their memory. In their ninety-year-old world, Alzheimer’s has no meaning; love and respect prevail. In the desert village of Dastjerd, their daily conversations find meaning in the harmony of romantic verses. The couple’s only wish is to visit their seven children, who have all moved to the city.
