The film was the official entry of Austrian candidate for the Foreign Language Award 2010. Some have to overcome nightmares to achieve their dreams A film based on true stories set in the mountains of Kurdistan, in Turkey and in Vienna about a group of refugees trying desperately to reach the holy land of freedom. The main storyline is the journey undertaken by two young men, who are trying to bring 2 small children from Iran to Turkey, so that they can be reunited with their parents in Austria. Interwoven with these and other stories are the adventures of a Persian teacher and a young Kurd, who fight their miserable situation with a big sense of humour. A film about mankind’s universal need to have dreams – and the courage to pursue these dreams, even though many of them dissolve into thin air. Stories of illusions and periods of uncertainty, of people with very different natures, sharing the same universal dream: at least a moment of freedom.
