Marie, une prostituée de Marseille, rend visite, très émue, à son fils Simon qu'elle n'a pas vu depuis longtemps et dont elle a confié la garde à Gilles, un berger de la campagne provençale. Simon, âgé à présent d'une douzaine d'années, idéalise sa mère dont il ignore la profession. Marie, jugeant qu'elle est à présent suffisamment bien installée pour prendre son enfant en charge, le ramène avec elle. Mais après l'euphorie des premiers jours, Simon ne tarde pas à découvrir les activités de sa mère et à déchanter d'autant plus qu'elle s'est amourachée de Paul, un individu douteux et pleutre que Simon se met à détester, ce qui crée des dissensions entre la mère aveuglée par l'amour et le fils, clairvoyant. Afin d'échapper au milieu délétère familial, Simon, attiré par la mer, se met à fréquenter le port et sympathise avec François, un capitaine de marine marchande… Celui-ci, discernant le malaise et l'isolement du gamin, l'embauche comme mousse pendant que Marie va être entraînée au cœur d'un drame à cause de Paul fourvoyé dans une sordide affaire de faux billets.

A boat filled with emigrants from Sweden arrives at the Danish island of Bornholm. Among them are Lasse Karlsson and his son Pelle who have moved to Denmark from Skåne County, in southern Sweden, to find work after the death of Pelle's mother. They find employment at a large farm, but find themselves treated as the lowest form of life.

Qassem Julayi (Ghāsem Jolā'i), played by Hassan Darabi, is a football-obsessed 12-year-old in the small city of Malayer, who would rather compete in the alley of his impoverished neighborhood after school than do his homework. His illiterate mother constantly berates him, but Qassem has long since learned to invent excuses for his poor school performance. In one early scene, we see him arriving late to school after going out of his way to purchase a football fan magazine. He appears with a bandage around his head, feigning a toothache. A few moments later, Qassam's skeptical teacher spots the magazine and snatches it away (only to start reading it himself). The boy resolves to travel by himself to Tehran, a 150-mile bus ride away, to attend an important game. Bus fare, however, is 10 tomans. The penniless Qassem pilfers 5 tomans that his mother has hidden, but the next day she discovers the theft and promptly reports it to the school principal, who not only berates her for raising a "monster" but canes Qassem's hands for refusing to admit guilt. That afternoon, Qassem and his friend Akbar roam the storefront vendors, attempting to sell small items to raise funds, but find no takers. The friend suggests selling an uncle's old box camera, but Qassem rejects one offer and instead hatches the scheme of pretending to take pictures of younger kids after school, collecting 5 rials for each "sitting." In a famous sequence, he issues directions to his "subjects" while snapping photo after photo with the empty camera. Onscreen, we see a succession of children posing for portraits that will never materialize. Still lacking sufficient cash, Qassem resolves to sell his team's soccer ball and goals, even though they are group property. Finally he has collected enough for his journey.
