In 2156, the Earth’s population, due to natural disasters and environmental degradation, is about to leave Earth and move to other places in the solar system. Families are scattered over different parts of the universe. Tariq and his son Nawid have recently arrived at Jupiter’s snow and ice-covered moon Ganymede. Pending the arrival of aunt Sanaz from Earth, they adapt to their new life on a solitary space base.

The film is screened as part of the short film program DEPARTURES
Five short films that explore the unknown, the universe’s unanswered mysteries, and humanity’s eternal longing to understand its place in the cosmos. With both humor and creativity, these films open doors to new worlds, visions, and ideas — as dizzying as they are imaginative.
