Set against the vast, arid landscapes of Iran's Sistan and Baluchestan, the series masterfully intertwines personal narratives with broader social and economic issues sweeping the region. Their struggles are compounded by devastating dust storms and the poignant, symbolic fight to prevent the extinction of the beloved Sistani Zebu, a cornerstone of their cultural heritage.
Each episode of this evocative series tells a distinct story, weaving together the family's personal challenges with the broader cultural and social fabric of the region. Through their eyes, viewers experience both the hardships and the profound beauty of Sistani life —the richness of its traditions, the warmth of its community, and the breathtaking rawness of its natural world.
