A documentary-style look into the daily (or rather, nightly) lives of a group of vampires in Staten Island who have “lived” together for hundreds and hundreds of years.

Ali's life in Canada as a newcomer is shaken when his naive cousin Omid arrives unexpectedly from overseas. His arrival sets off a tide of misadventures threatening to cost him his cherished ambitions and driving him to wits end.

An adaptation of Martin McDonagh's play about a fiction writer living in a police state who is interrogated about the gruesome content of his short stories, and their similarities to a number of bizarre child murders occurring in his town.

Omid happily celebrates his birthday with his wife and her family at a beautiful villa near the Caspian Sea. A phone call from Omid's ex-wife puts the festivities on hold as she drops a bombshell that threatens to unravel the new life he is trying to lead. Written by Iranian playwright Mohammad Yaghoubi, this insightful drama tackles marital and social issues with sharp dialogue and knowing humour.

Jamshid, the son of Abbas Sakhai, has been living abroad for a number of years. He sends a message for his family who then decide to make a film depicting their lives and send it to Jamshid. Omid, the younger son of the family, rents a video camera and records images of members of the family as they talk directly into the camera.
