Films from Iran : [Video]
Content:
A revelation of staggering force, lyrically composed by one of the 20th century's leading poets, Forough Farrokhzad. Her first and only film, it depicts the lives and bodies of people tragically deformed by leprosy. A film of stirring and powerful images, and a beautifully, tragically poetic narration that heavily influenced the modern Iranian cinema of Abbas Kiarostami and Mohsen Makhmalbaf, who called it "the best Iranian film." It provides, in the film's own words, "a vision of pain no caring human being should ignore." (Facets)
Note:
Plus: two short films by Mohsen Makhmalbaf: "The school that was blown away", "Images from the Qajar Dynasty". Special features: Facets cine-notes. Collectible booklet featuring: - essays by critic Jonathan Rosenbaum and filmmaker Chris Marker, - biographies of Forough Farrokhzad and Mohsen Makhmalbaf. Featurette: interview with Forough Farrokhzad's sister, Pooran
