Synopsis

The film is about a man who changes his life on the eve of going to a mental hospital. A man is set to inherit insanity and, like his father, end up in a mental hospital at the age of 40. Fear of such a dreadful fate ruins his life.[12][13]

Censorship

After his sentence for making "The Upside-down Triangle", Rabjabian did not requested a license from any government entity for making or distributing films.[7][8][14][15][16][17][18]

Release for protest

This film is in line with Iranian popular protests which culminated in November 2019, and was released on the internet for free in February 2020 by Rajabian as a show against censorship and in sympathy with the protesting people.[5][12][15][19]
