Feminism in everyday life

Abbas is a very slippery director. In the Islamic world, he gave up discussing realistic and sensitive religious, political and cultural issues, but instead focused his lens on naive and stubborn children ("Where is My Friend's House") and simple farmers ("Olive Trees"). "The Lovers Under"), he casts his eyes on the inside of people ("The Taste of Cherry"), he even went to Africa to shoot a documentary ("African ABC"), and found people in the "exotic world" of Westerners. , Discover the "idea"...

Seeking common ground while reserving differences actually has a very solid foundation

1. The conversation that took place in this taxi, the life of the passengers and the life of the female driver can take place in China. We have overemphasized cultural differences and ignored the amazing similarities of life content. Regardless of the living standard, relationship experience, family situation, you can't see how Iran is different from Beijing and Shanghai.

2. "Taxi" filmed by Jaffa Panasi in 2015 should be like a tribute to Abbas. That film talked about politics,...

Long stream

The film is very simple in structure --10 same shots in one car. It contains 10 different conversations of son and mother, old lady praying everyday, and women who just broke up etc. They all portray women's predication in Iran. The film is like a stream flowing quietly and slowly. The audience is like following the stream and finally come to the ocean. At first I feel it is boring, but I in the end I realize that the power of the film is not like the fast-paced and straightforward American...

Iranians in 2001

In this movie, the camera never left that position: inside the windshield, above the dashboard, to the left or right. There is only dialogue, or please look at the facial expressions of the characters. In the dialogue between the characters, you can hear their identities and relationships, but they do not form a story. This is just a collection of all the conversations between the “passengers” encountered by the woman driving and her in a complete day. There are ten fragments in total, with...

Play ticket

Abbas has always liked in-car shots, and most of his works will have a large number of in-car scenes. And this film seems to be a piece of play (pure speculation) that Abbas shot to satisfy his own habit. But for Abbas, even if he plays, he has to play with depth and criticism.

From the beginning to the end of the film, there are two fixed shots from the inside of the car. It records ten conversations between a middle-class divorced woman and friends, relatives, and strangers who ride...

85/100 Although the film generally consists of conversations between women and women, we can hardly see adult men, but the topics of discussion are always inseparable from men, who are the third parties who continue to squeeze the small space of the taxi . The son shows the authority of men in a more secret way. The battle between the son and the mother is actually the struggle between male rights and equal rights. Perhaps the path pointed out by the son is the real shortcut, but the mother...

God, this kind of mother and child have been torturing each other since the last life... It hurts my brain to be...

Iranian women have gone a long way to become independent, and they can't finish it. Such a little boy grew up with such a clear professional woman, and he was still brainwashed so thoroughly by the patriarchal society, and he grew up alive. A little tyrant with no hope in...

In the beginning and end of the film, the appearance of my son made my blood pressure skyrocket. In this film about women, the role of the husband is always absent, but the conflict between the son and the heroine, the mother, is enough to show How the man's foot that trod between the necks of women in the current state of Iranian society has been passed down from generation to generation. PS: It turns out that Panasi's "Taxi" is a tribute to this...
