    The story I'm looking for and the way I tell it

    In January of this year, I went to the Palm Springs International Film Festival as usual. This is a traditional repertoire in our family. Every January and June, we drive two hours to a city full of palm trees in the desert and stay in the same hotel. Had the same pig house sandwich and went to...

    A Separation: An Imbalance in the Balance of Life

    Although many film festivals are no longer as glorious and grand as they used to be, I still habitually pay attention and use them as a weather vane or a reliable recommendation guide for film viewing, because at least I can see the reality of the present. A rare pure film. The deserving big winner...

    Tragedy is never one person's fault

    This is a realistic film, simple, true, helpless and directly touching people's hearts. There is no deliberate sensationalism, no absolute right or wrong, no exaggerated plot, just a true portrayal of ordinary people's life, the conflict between two families. This film made me realize that the...

    Struggling in the world is a long parting

    This Iranian film is destined to be included in film history. During the viewing process, it reminded me of "Marriage Story". After watching the film, I savored the details carefully, and felt that "Marriage Story" is far inferior to the meaning of "A Parting". Rich. This film contains too many...

    true farewell

    I'm never used to family movies, but this one is impossible to ignore. Although the plot is just a bit of life, and there is no national righteousness, but the expression is very sincere, not trivial, not artificial, not sensational, and not promiscuous. The actors' performances are real and...

    life as it is

    Really a great movie. The setting of the characters is actually very simple: a couple who love their family in different ways and have to separate due to differences of opinion, namely the protagonists of the same name - Nader and Simin; Nader's father who suffers from Alzheimer's disease, and his...

    have a phone

    Previously, my exposure to Iranian films was limited to "Little Shoes" I watched in junior high school. At that time, the term Iran was not as sensitive as it is now. Movies from places we can't get to in this lifetime are the best way to learn about them. To be honest, if it weren't for such a...
