In the modern world, ancient nomadic tribes are near annihilation and most of them have given up their nomadic habits for being settled on a piece of land. This film is a documentary about customs and rituals of Shahsavan tribe that lives in northwestern part of Iran in a nomadic way and leads a living through raising sheep and grazing animals.

On the foots of 4,800-m Sabalan Mountain live nomadic people who are shepherds and speak Turkish. This current film, in fact, is an inside look at the life of a shepherd who has no choice but to take refuge in a cave after he loses his beloved girl, his mother, as well as the flock he was supposed to graze. Soon he makes the acquaintance of an astronomer who has come to study a 6,000-year-old Stonehenge in that region and the subsequent friendship leads to a great development in the hopeless and desperate life of the shepherd; a development which culminates in his ‘ascension’.

The film takes us along 180-km path of the tribe’s immigration, which takes place every year, to make us familiar with their customs, rituals, marriage ceremony, as well as occupation of tribal women
