- Synopsis
- Loosely based on Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, set in the modern day Tehran, about the young generation of Iran in a rap musical genre. A crazy mix of the western and the eastern world, Mammad tells the story of two best friends, troubled thug boys that have grown up together in the streets of Tehran since they were kids and now they run one of the most powerful drug dealing gangs in Tehran, but right after they make the biggest deal of their lives and make a lot of money, Mammad has a change of heart about his way of living, breaks up with his long-time girlfriend and decides to quit the gang. It seems that all the partying, the rush and the danger of the gangster lifestyle doesn't interest him anymore but the gang isn‘t exactly happy when they find out about his decision.
