Seholan is a powerful Iranian Kurdish drama that shines a light on the lives of kolbars — hardworking men and women who carry heavy electrical goods such as refrigerators and televisions across treacherous mountain terrain due to a lack of steady employment. Among them are educated, talented individuals whose potential goes unrealised by circumstance.
At the heart of the story is a poignant love triangle: young Tanya is pressured into marrying a much older man by family superstition and the influence of a local faith healer, while Riboar, the young man who loves her, is himself bound by tradition to wed his brother's widow — a woman twelve years his senior with two children. The film is a compassionate portrait of lives shaped by poverty, custom, and quiet resilience.
