Watch Men at Work

This comedy by talented Iranian writer and director Mani Haghighi presents an unusual story, an interesting plot ripe with symbolism. Four old friends, all middle aged men, drive back together after a skiing vacation. All of them wrestle with various personal issues. At one point, they park their car and get out of the vehicle briefly. But when they notice a large boulder perched on the top of a nearby hill, towering over a lake, they decide just for fun to shove the rock downhill and see it crash into the water. Events do not proceed exactly as planned, however.
