An aging woman (Sara Vazirzadeh) narrates her life story through memories dominated by the shoes belonging to those she loved. She recounts her childhood when she anxiously waited until she could wear high heels, her life during wartime, meeting her husband, and having children and grandchildren. Payman Haghani’s (A Man Who Ate His Cherries) imaginative second film examines the narrative structure in most creative ways: even though audiences do not see the faces of each character, the emotional reaction is just as rewarding as the film unfolds.
