Jean-Luc Godard once said: "The film begins with Griffith and ends with Abbas Chiarusdami." Few contemporary directors can use the most simple lenses and pictures like Abbas. It expresses the most primitive aspects of human nature and life; and there are very few directors who have their own unique...

Abbas is always innovating and subverting the film's unreal, true and false forms. This is also an important reason for Godard's admiration for him. He has the same spirit of rebellion as Godard. But Abbas is moderate in subject matter and editing, and more realistic. In this film, Abbas combined...

I am a person who is very interested in art, and I have seen a lot of movies since I was a child. ...It's hard to play the director, despite my confidence and the respect they gave me, the hospitality they gave me...Before this, no one would have followed me to do these things because I was poor. But I pretend to be a celebrity and they will do what I say. But I left their house and I went back to the old me, it was night and when I took the money I realized I was still the old Sabjian... desperate little pocket money so he could go back to desolate home...I realize I'm still the same poor guy back in his social class alone. So, I would go to bed, and when I woke up, and I wanted to go there and do something for them, I wanted to go back even though it was really hard for me. Because of my passion for movies, and most importantly, because they respected me and supported me, I did get caught up in it. It encouraged me to work better, to be there, and even feel like I'm a real director, I'm a real Makmapaf, I feel like I'm a real director, it's really him...pretending to be a director is itself a show. ...

Really deserves to be the movie terminator! The thing that Abbas gave to "Close-Up" is actually very simple, it is an ordinary empty jar that falls from a height. But it is in this mundane and common thing that we see a hidden and touching power: true love or true life. Just like the "movie" images captured in movies, this continuous movement consciously, spontaneously, and naturally formed due to interaction or conflict can be said to define the art of film and explain the existence of film (people). significance. Abbas is rarely political in his films. But what's interesting is that his films are all made for politicians. As a decision maker who always holds the guide tube or steering wheel, the trial was more like a profound thought experiment: a person who can buy a movie with money but has no talent to appreciate a movie, and a person who can enjoy a movie with talent but has no money to buy a movie, in the end? Who can really own a movie? In a consumer society, it is difficult for us to distinguish works (genuine) from commodities (pirated), just as it is difficult for you to distinguish what is a copied "Day" and what is the original life.
