Set in a bleak, uniform school ruled by a strict authoritarian regime, a seemingly trivial announcement upends an otherwise ordinary day.

Spoilers ahead

A strict, suited male teacher (Bijan Daneshmand) enters a dilapidated classroom filled with twelve students who are engaged in lively chatter. As soon as the students notice him, they immediately fall silent and stand at attention, demonstrating the authority he commands. The teacher glances at his watch before a voice from the intercom, presumably the headmaster, announces that the school is undergoing significant changes and instructs the students to listen carefully to their teacher’s directions.
