Midday Meal
2026, Persian. Directed by Majid Majidi.
Even in the darkest moments, there is a meal of love.
In a parched badland village that looks like the end of the world, Solan is the only teacher. After years of enduring the poorly paid temporary job, he holds one modest dream - to become a full-time teacher and to live in a proper house with his mother. But everything begins to unravel with the death of the benefactor who had funded the school’s meal program.
