Payman returns to Iran to renew his green card but his rapidly dissolving marriage to Leila has taken a harsh turn. She now demands her $85,000 marriage portion (a fee negotiated at the time of the wedding that can be claimed by a wife at any time during the union). With his wages and property garnished, he cannot return to work in the United States, and only a few days remain before his visa expires. The couple is forced to find a solution that will allow both to save face. Winner of the best feature film award at the 2008 Thessaloniki International Film Festival. 2008, 35mm, in Farsi and English with English subtitles, 75 minutes.
