When Comes the Spring, Bring Me Some Yarn
by Maryam Hosseinian
A psychological thriller: a feminine narrative of loneliness, death, and love A young woman, deeply in love with her husband, travels to a snow-covered, remote village with their little son and daughter, so that the man can write his novel in silence and peace. The man goes to town every day to work in a publishing house, while his wife and children stay at home until night. After a while, they realize that the village is uninhabited except for a woman named Nastaran who lives next door. She is a middle-aged yet beautiful and mysterious woman living alone. Strange noises and unknown footprints on the snow scare even the man who insists on the house being peaceful. The woman feels something outside their house spying on her and her family. At first, she thinks all this is only an illusion, but little by little she feels a shadow roaming around freely out in the cold, in the dark basement that seems to be locked, and even in the bedrooms. It turns out that things are not as they seem. Is this calm loving woman hiding something?
