Mardan



Batin Ghobadi : 2014

A police officer finds himself haunted by a traumatic childhood memory as he searches for a missing man in the rugged mountains of Iraqi Kurdistan. Mardan is a serious, brooding officer who is called into action to investigate the disappearance of a young man. The man's wife is extremely worried that foul play may be involved, as he was carrying a lot of cash, so Mardan sets out with the woman and her young son to try to solve the mystery. Stalking the Kurdish countryside, trying to solve the case of the missing man, Mardan finds himself revisiting his own personal history. The journey through a haunting terrain also becomes a trip through an obscure past. Batin Ghobadi's feature debut premiered at Toronto International Film Festival 2014.
