Ten dialogues between six or seven people and the protagonist female driver, this is Iran, it can be anywhere in the world! The same life experience - pain and attachment. When the mother and son quarrel, it is impossible for you to fall asleep, and you will be caught. Completely inside the car, except for the little bit outside of the prostitute getting out of the car. Because I have seen "Taxi" first, I am not surprised by this mode, but it should be the first of this. The female driver is...

In the last ten minutes, I couldn't see the TT because the disc was stuck. No wonder it took seven or eight hours for a special recording of a disc. I like this kind of film made in a confined and small space, propped up by dialogue, with infinite imagination and possibilities. The topic revolves around women and life, simple and...

3.5, a formal experiment, but a bit more straightforward. Life Situation and Emotions of Iranian Women. His son was the most lethal at a young age, and was thoroughly soaked in patriarchal education. With a natural attitude, she accused her of doing her "duty" and not thinking too much. In addition, the introduction is strange, the heroine is not a taxi driver, she feels like a middle-class woman with good education. Except for the old women and sex workers, the rest of the people carried by...

4.5 The best dialogue with prostitutes is like Omar Khayyam's poem with weakening at the back but still shocking enough to take off the hijab at the...

【Exhibition at China Film Archive】A very experimental Abbas film. There are only three seats. Mapping Iranian society through a series of conversations in the car. Surprisingly, except for one young boy, the characters in the dialogue are all women. The hostess (driver) is a beautiful woman who is divorced and wants to remarry. The passengers include an old woman who prays devoutly, a broken-hearted young woman, and even a drunken prostitute. Quite feminist. The translation is poor, the shaved...

Same as Hulot's mechanism of capturing society in traffic and the small movements of real human beings, Abbas chose to leave some innocuous details rather than rush into narrative. A Summer Chronicle would be mediocre without that subtle self-reflexiveness. A film about Abbas only realizes that his genius, which seems to be a documentary, is scripted when poring over the extra-film details. Abbas discusses gender and sexuality in...

20211113 Rewatch. From 10 to 1, from man to woman, from day to night, from long hair to bald, from argument to silence. Still water runs deep between woman and woman, and the only boy makes communication a stagnant pool. | Life. The last came to an abrupt end. "You are wholesale, I am retail."
