We travel to Northern Iran, in the lush, mountainous region of Masuleh – a striking contrast to the arid deserts that define much of the country.

Nestled within the green slopes of the Alborz Mountains, this centuries-old village is renowned for its unique architecture and rich cultural heritage.

Here, homes are built into the steep terrain in such a way that the roof of one house serves as the courtyard or walkway for the one above it, creating a cascading network of pedestrian paths that link the entire village together.

Life in Masuleh unfolds along these rooftops, where markets, conversations, and daily routines take place above the forested valleys below.

This documentary explores the rhythms of life in Masuleh, the traditions that have endured for generations, and the delicate balance between preserving the past and adapting to modern times.
