This is an unbelievable divine film, and there are too many intertextualities and fables worth pondering. The male protagonist is an unemployed movie fan who pretends to be an Iranian director and goes to a wealthy family to fool others to make a movie. Abbas grasped this subject with the sensitivity of the filmmaker, recorded the court trial, and listened to the prosecution and the defense. When I learned that the fake director was more willing to be an actor, I simply fulfilled him and the family who also dreamed of movies and repeated the case. At the end of the film, the real director met the fake director and went to the plaintiff's house to apologize. This close-up is both a courtroom shooting and a gathering movie dream, which is too interesting.
