A very crude history about Irán and the perception of theocracy from different perspective
Shocking film about oppression in Iran, says a lot with very little
Dad lost his gun and responded by speedrunning authoritarianism. Worst family game night ever.
Through profound symbolism, well-defined characters & emotional scenes, the film uses the dynamics of family to explore themes of opression
Lots to admire about this. The pacing and bad ending hold this back. The integration of real life footage is extremely effective.
The film, although almost three hours long, escapes boredom and generates a lot of stress and disbelief due to the story
The writing and pacing is kind of terrible. So slow then a cartoonish ending that wasn’t worth it for me. Bummer. Brave filmmaking/themes.
First two hours? So powerful and ambitious with slick pace and direction! Last 40 minutes? Disregards prior themes and character complexity.
