77 Hours
Synopsis
77 Hours is a psychological thriller and political drama set across the nights of January 8 and 9, when Iran's streets become the scene of one of the darkest and bloodiest crackdowns in recent memory. Unarmed and unprepared, ordinary people are trapped in chaos, gunfire, fear, and death. At the center is a man who is not a hero prepared for battle, but an ordinary person forced to survive in an inhuman catastrophe — surrounded by wounded civilians, security forces, and collapsing memories. Through a tense, intimate narrative moving between streets, hospital corridors, hidden spaces, and broken recollections, the film explores survival, sacrifice, guilt, silence, and the fragile line between truth and fear.
