Barre's Silence

Synopsis

The inhabitants of a remote Iranian village argue about the performance of their local pride and joy, Barre the fighting bull. As the bull's owner Nader is in jail, his son-in-law Bahador is taking care of Barre. The pain is palpable when he loses to his rival from a nearby village. Once the party has come to a muted end, the villagers start to squabble. So who is actually Barre's owner?
