Let me see a different Iran

(I didn't read any short reviews and film reviews, and came directly to write about my feelings after watching the film.)

The narrative of the whole story is bland and full of energy, which made me even think that this is what happened to me.

Before watching this film, Iran was in my impression - a big oil country, fighting every day, and the people living a life of misery.

And through this film, what I see is

that each of them are polite and say hello to each other when they meet each other, no matter how beautiful a woman is wearing a headscarf.

They have firm principles because of firm beliefs. More importantly, each of them has a strong desire to protect their children. The first thing parents think of when they do things is their children. For the sake of the children, they can give up everything (the servants give up huge compensation for the children), and they can violate their own principles for the sake of the children (the hero lies before the law).

Their legal system is not perfect, and only a judge's small room (like going to a hospital) can be used as a court.

Their text is weird.

In short, let me see a completely different Iran.
