“Jafar Panahi continues to effectively defy their yrkesförbud”
“Directed by Jafar Panahi, with Behnaz Jafari, Jafar Panahi, Marziyeh Rezaei, Mahedeh Erteghaei.”
“the Iranian director Jafar Panahi has alternately been sentenced to prison, to yrkesförbud and placed under house arrest.nOch yet somehow managed to continue to make and smuggle out thought-provoking movies.”
“the 58-year-old Jafar Panahi has throughout his career made films that are a kind of iranian neorealism, with a humane message and a critical look at life in Iran, not least how women are treated.nSedan 2010 he has not had to leave their country. But it is that those who governs in Iran, who believe that he has made videos critical of the regime, did not fully want to execute the punishment he has been sentenced to. The imprisonment was under house arrest. And now he seems to also get to travel around in his home country. Yrkesförbudet he has defied the by make and smuggle out films on the big filmfestivalerna. ”Taxi to Tehran” (2015) won Guldbjörnen in Berlin. This film won the manuspriset in Cannes last year.it is a film that is both about film and about life in Iran today, mostly from the women’s point of view. Panahi (playing himself) and an actress (Behnaz Jafari), popular in Iran today, making a trip out to the countryside. In parallel, tells the story of three generations of actors, women, before, during and after the revolution in 1979.it is engaging, thought-provoking, sometimes fun, in a slightly understated way.nFilmen also has one of the last few years of the best lines, when an old man in the countryside to describe a bull who for years has been the cows ‘ favorite:n– When the cows look at him, goes moo the with desire!nMan wondering and getting curious about the masterful films of Jafar Panahi will do the day he gets to work without restrictions, in complete freedom.”
