The Lizard

Petty criminal Reza, serving a prison sentence, stumbles upon a clergyman's robe. Seeing a chance for freedom, he dons the disguise and escapes into the world. Yet life in clerical garb proves unexpectedly complex—instead of reverence, he meets public indifference and scorn. Heading for a remote village as a stepping stone to flee the country, Reza is mistaken for a genuine man of faith by the locals. They welcome him into their community, entrusting him with their spiritual needs and expecting him to perform religious duties, forcing the impostor into an unforeseen moral dilemma.
