Há exatos 20 anos estreava no Festival de Veneza, onde ganhou o Grande Prêmio do Júri. Como todo filme do Kiarostami, ele pega um colorido local transitando pela linguagem universal, no caso bem amparada pela poesia recitativa e visual e já vislumbrando um tipo de incomunicabilidade central do século XXI: a proximidade das pessoas pelo uso do celular onde quer que estejamos, ao mesmo tempo que um certo malabarismo para exercer tal contato.

Velvet Crowe | 91 97% |
A narratively basic film that resonates with profound themes and avoids typical filmmaking conventions, evoking scenes of serene beauty and strangely light-hearted feelings despite the connotations of life and death. An unorthodox film where not much happens but many things are imminent, pushing an interesting dichotomy between the speedy needs of the engineer and the slow, milquetoast lifestyle of the people in the village. Certainly amog Kiarostami's best, especially in terms of visual flair.

Each Kiarostami film has a distinct rhythm. In this case, he toys with the routine of country life as it's impeded upon by the complications of the urban world. Through his signature conversational style, he dwells on the contrast between the folksy pleasantries of the villagers and the angry, hurried tone of the city-dwellers, but beyond cursory observations about modernization, the film shares gentle insights into the intricacies of human communication and the struggle to connect.

My favourite parts of the film were Behzad's motorcycle rides with the doctor; short-lived scenes which in their brevity conveyed more truths and insights than most films do over their entire length. Unfortunately, the majority of the film left me with too much ambiguity for me to understand what happened exactly or why. Kiarostami light, if that's even a thing.

When you think 'nothing happens' in this life, so many things happen. Very lyrical, subtle story and so many symbols to show the value of life. Really appreciated Kiarostami's genius. However it's definitely not for every moviegoers.
