Pesaran-e Sandbad

Sons of Sindbad

In 1974, Mrs. Marion Kaplan, a British photographer of the National Geographic made a journey from the Persian Gulf to Africa on an old traditional sailing ship to report on the oldest maritime trade route in the region. On that trip, she spent four months with the latest generation of Iranian sailors. Forty years later, Mrs. Kaplan comes to the south of Iran to meet again with her previous fellow travelers. But the visit is not what she expects it to be.
