Thirteen-year-old Soran (Soran Ebrahim) is known as "Satellite" because of his skill at installing dishes in his Kurdish village, where people are searching for news of Saddam Hussein on the eve of the American Iraqi invasion. The industrious and cheerful Soran falls for orphan Agrin (Avaz Latif), a sad-faced girl traveling with her seemingly clairvoyant brother and caring for a 3-year-old child. The exquisitely haunting mountains of Kurdistan play backdrop to both tragedy and humor in the third feature film from Iranian filmmaker Bahman Ghobadi (Marooned in Iraq, A Time for Drunken Horses). (Fully subtitled)
