Sample Text
With mesmerizing cinematography, this film examines a single Iranian man's journey (or are there three men?) through a complex warping and weaving of time and space. In front of a faceless building, a man boards a plain bus at a featureless stop. As the bus pulls up beside a man and woman in an adjacent car, original disconnected images connect the three through a hazy, nightmarish history. Along the way, we witness the decay of an old man as premonitions of death flicker in and out of his daily rituals. His routine brings us once more back to a featureless bus stop with another (or is it the same?) bus, and we follow it back to our origin. Director Moussavi draws upon his background in painting to create this poetic and complex illustration of Iranian life, art and relationships.
