Three days of holiday: the young Iranian conscript, Javad, is looking forward to asking his girlfriend Nana to marry him in a small village on the Caspian Sea. The price he has had to pay for three extra days of holiday is high: the death of a human being. Meanwhile, loving father Heshmat is eating pizza at a restaurant with his wife and daughter. The next day, as always, he gets up early for work, to go to a job which guarantees him a comfortable middle-class life – and yet strips him of any humanity. Heshmat only has to push a button to execute someone in captivity. Mohammad Rasoulouf's film asks a rare question: any country that enforces the death penalty needs people who are willing to kill other people – who are they?
