A group of male teachers crosses the mountainous paths of the remote Iranian Kurdistan region. Carrying large blackboards on their backs, they wander from village to village in search of students. The sudden menacing sound of overhead helicopters forces the men to run and seek refuge. One teacher, Reeboir, ventures away from the group and confronts a group of adolescent boys who transport contraband goods between Iran and Iraq. He tries to convince them of the advantages of learning to read and write, but none of them are interested. Said, another teacher also now traveling alone, arrives in a seemingly deserted village. No one responds to his calls soliciting his services as a teacher. He persists, but is greeted only by slamming doors and windows ... Said later meets a group of 100 or so old men accompanied by a sole young woman and child. They, too, are uninterested in learning. One of the old men feels he can only find peace if his young widowed daughter, Halaleh, marries before his death. Said has only his blackboard to offer in exchange for her hand.
