The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Hasan and Davod are two friends of old times who are living together. Hasan is continuously writing screenplays which are all about a dark and bitter space, so the producers do not want them. Hasan loves Mahshid who is the daughter of a wealthy family. Due to his financial situation, Hasan is humiliated by Mahshid's uncle who is taking care of her. Hasan who is upset about this condition, decides to write a screenplay favorite to the producers so he writes it and goes to a producer who has always rejected his screenplays. He begins reading his new screenplay to him. When he finishes reading the screenplay, the producer buys it enthusiastically so Hasan can be wealthy too.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
