A Few Days Later… is a subdued, minimalist portrait of a woman, Shahrzad, struggling with a life-altering decision. Karimi weaves a rich tapestry of mundane moments in a film that pays close attention to how everyday life unfolds. For graphic-designer Shahrzad, life is a routine of creating book covers and product packaging, holding meetings, taking photographs and attending classes. She also engages in an ongoing war with a neighbour who always steals her parking spot, and she spends long periods watching television and listening to phone messages. Never still, always wandering, she engages in a pastime that mirrors her uncertain state of mind. Slowly, it becomes clear that Shahrzad is living in a state of upheaval. Her crisis involves a sudden break with Mahmood, her boyfriend of _ve years, and the precarious fate of Sina, the son they have been raising together. The child suffers from violent convulsions and is confined to a hospital.
