- Synopsis
- A series of disappearances of female hikers occurred in the mountains. The police searched for a serial murderer, while locals harbored suspicions towards a mythical Leopard figure. Bahman, a local forest ranger, actively prevented them from hunting the leopards. A decade later, new evidence emerges pointing to Bahman's father, now afflicted with Alzheimer's, who made some remarks to a nurse about the potential burial site of the victims. A journalist theorizes that the father inadvertently revealed crucial information and his article linking him to the case thrusts Bahman’s life into chaos.
