What makes this film the best I've ever seen in Iran? Is this the story or is this the directing? Maybe it's the acting, or perhaps the editing. I believe this movie has them all. For many years Iranian filmmakers who gained international success were the ones who enjoyed showing a very dark and uncivilized picture of Iran but Asghar Farhady has proved that one can be a successful filmmaker and yet show a more realistic picture of this land and average or working class Iranian families. The story is believable and easy to understand because the characters and situations are something that each one of us have experienced or witnessed sometime in our lives. The actors even the little girl are marvelous, you can feel their emotions and understand their motives every second of the movie and the editing is just superb. You don't see such a great movie everyday, so if you love movies and enjoy movies from all over the world, don't miss the chance to watch it.
