在这部爱的结晶纪录片片中,Leila和Sahand是一对幸福的情侣，他们有一个可爱的小儿子，Mani。然而他们必须要一起逃离伊朗，因为他们私通的罪行会被判以死刑。他们寻求庇护的旅程一开始就遭遇到了困难：2012年的叙利亚内战带来了大量需要帮助的难民，复杂的官僚机构带来的繁琐过程让他们又一次陷入困境。丹麦的纪录片导演伊娃·穆尔瓦德跟随着这对相爱的伊朗难民和他们的私生子超过五年之久，记录下了他们为了合法地生活在一起而寻求庇护的艰难历程，完成了这部感人的作品。影片在多伦多国际电影节进行首次展映后，又出现在了许多知名电影节中，包括颁给了它金雨果奖的芝加哥国际电影节。
Tensions run high from the opening minutes of this film. A desperate man in Tehran speaks to the camera: "I'm not sure if, tomorrow, I'll be dead or alive." This is Sahand, who has been in a long-term adulterous relationship with Leila, despite Iran's threat of the death penalty for infidelity. Now, the couple is fleeing the country with Mani, their four-year-old love child. Danish documentary filmmaker Eva Mulvad follows the family as they go into exile in Turkey and then enter United Nations bureaucratic limbo. They have the bad luck to start their journey in 2012, just as the Syrian Civil War is creating a mass wave of refugees; their case is pushed further down the list. Sahand and Leila are sympathetic and compelling figures on screen, keeping control of their negative emotions, as many parents do with children around. But they are quick to display joy, as revealed by the film's small moments: a birthday party, buying a bicycle, getting a job. As the years go by, their fate rests...
