Charged with humanity and compassion.
What you're not prepared for in Marziyeh Meshkini's astonishing debut film is the way its central image instantly leaps into the pantheon of world cinema with a rightness and an urgency that glue your eyes to the screen.
Announces the arrival of an undeniable talent (Meshkini) that has come of age.
Opens cute and poignant, turns wildly visceral, and ends in a burst of magical realism.
Graceful compositions and slow, easy pacing.
Promising, if uneven, first feature.
