An Iranian film director is blacklisted and is barred from directing films, forcing him to go into directing commercials. His actress leaves him to pursue a career with other actors. Whilst this is occurring, Iranian film directors are being killed off one by one, with their heads severed and the word 'pig' imprinted on their foreheads.
