Life in a Taxi

To be honest, I haven’t heard of this famous director before, and I haven’t seen any movies about Iran. I just vaguely remember a “I grew up in Iran”—full of gloom and helplessness .
When I saw the film for the first time, I was in denial. Is this such a crazy thing, a cute documentary? Show me this with your pants off? ! The following stories are quite touching, especially after the director picks up the niece, and the niece asks the boy to return the money he picked up in order to make the movie. This is probably the climax of the whole film, right? The mandatory gold collection, which is almost related to moral kidnapping, is really dumbfounding.
Of course, in the film, the little girl also mentioned which movies cannot be filmed, let alone released. Well, for the sake of the water meter, let's watch it for yourself. After all, it means that I am TG. In short, everything is for building a harmonious society.
Many small stories reflect the life of the Iranian people, which makes people sigh.

    "The capable people make low-cost films, the wise people make cost-free films, and the useless to make blockbuster films."

    The end is a particularly wonderful black humor, like the cover on the ashtray, echoing the joke of the young man complaining about the car thief at the beginning, and the whole story is stuffed into the black ashtray. The irony is still the hypocrisy and self-deception of the Iranian government!
