Directed by Ziba Arzhang, the 6-minute flick is about a city painted on a tile that undergoes intense explosion and bombardment.
Due to the incident, the sun breaks into many pieces and the city gets dark. But the people build a new sun together.
In the production of the flick, Arzhang has taken benefit of Iranian art manifested in the form of beautiful tile works.
