The sensitive portrait of an old married couple.They are talking about their life and work: producing carpets. A two-part film on the traditions around carpet-making in the Zandjan province of Iran. Ways of working, rhythms of life: in the village, we see the precise gestures of an old blind woman weaving the Djadjim. In town, we are shown the Ghavam zadan ritual, the game reserved for the carpet sellers where luck and money come into play.
