"There's a lot to say about this film. If there's one thing Iranians share as a nation, it's intergenerational trauma, rage, and hatred toward the last two regimes - one, the other, or both - and the lingering question of what to do with all that, with or without the current regime. This masterpiece by Jafar Panahi captures it perfectly...."
💡 Did You Know?
The idea for the movie came from director Jafar Panahi's prison experience between July 2022 and February 2023, which stopped after a hunger strike, even though he had a six-year prison sentence. Then, he met and talked to many other fellow inmates, which prompted him to make a movie about what would such people do, after being released.
