Shahrdar-e Madreseh
Some things matter more than winning.
The story in brief
When a school-election candidate is hospitalised, his classmates discover a different meaning of participation.
About the project
A school election gives its pupils a first encounter with public responsibility. Sina and Behrouz enter the contest, but Behrouz’s heart condition takes him to hospital just as campaigning begins. Sina’s effort to keep his friend involved turns rivalry into a story about solidarity and making room for everyone.
