A black-and-white miniature that was composed
after Kiarostami’s death by his former colleagues who
reconstructed photographs from select locations with
the use of special effects, the film is set amidst the
rugged landscape of an unspecified Mediterranean
township. A boy loses his ball, which begins to bounce
on stairs and through streets, running down an infinite
slope in a sequence of precisely composed shots.
