By Sadegh Hedayat
Alone in a decaying house on the edge of the desert, Nader, a tormented painter, drifts between dream and delirium. Haunted by the image of a mysterious woman and a shadowy old man beneath a cypress tree, he becomes trapped in a cycle of obsession, guilt, and hallucination. As opium-fueled visions blur the line between past and present, love and death, Nader’s grip on reality begins to crumble. The world around him — filled with grotesque faces, fleeting beauty, and unbearable silence — becomes a mirror of his own fractured soul.
