PMA Films: Universal Language

In a mysterious and surreal interzone somewhere between Tehran and Winnipeg, the lives of multiple characters interweave with each other in surprising and mysterious ways.

Gradeschoolers Negin and d-Nazgol find a sum of money frozen in the winter ice and try to claim it. Meanwhile, Massoud leads a group of increasingly-befuddled tourists through the monuments and historic sites of Winnipeg. Matthew quits his meaningless job at a Quebecois government office and sets out upon an enigmatic journey to visit his mother.

Space, time, and personal identities crossfade, interweave, and echo into a surreal comedy of misdirection.
