Salar Khan has a house, property and a family that has started counting it.

What they have not noticed is that the grandchildren are a step ahead. Harchi To Begi, written and directed by Morteza Atash Zamzam, follows the children as they set up one strange and elaborate plan after another to save their grandfather.

Grandchildren Against the Grown-ups
The film turns a familiar family worry, what happens to an ageing parent and his property, into a comedy seen from the children's side. The adults are greedy and full of tricks, but the grandchildren read their parents' intentions early and decide to fight back. Their counter-plans grow more inventive as the story goes on, and the songs woven through the film keep the tone light. The result is a story about loyalty between generations that is aimed squarely at family viewing.
