In Persian. 87 minute running time so the perfect length. Very interestingly constructed movie with the story shifting seamlessly from one character to the next over the course of a day … clever … the conclusion is I’m darned glad that I’m not a woman in Iran … this is feminism at its best … Jafar Panahi worked with Abbas Kiarostami (my favorite Iranian filmmaker) and clearly learned a lot … this is a green-go, but it ain’t a feel-good picture. John Farr also recommends it.
