For all Kiarostami Admirers!
25 December 2016
A documentary about the legendary film maker Abbas Kiarostami. There is no interview or narration. A photographer and long time friend of Kiarostami, Seyfolah Samadian has put together some footage of his moments with Kiarostami, his travel photography, film making etc.

The simplicity of Iranian people are reflected here as in the Iranian films. For instance, when Kiarostami makes a surprise visit o the lead actress of "Through the Olive Trees (1994", beautiful Tahereh Ladanian, we can see how simple she is and the way she lives, in contrast to the Hollywood or other glittery dream land.

I was lucky enough to speak to the film maker about Kiarostami, and explained to him how excited we are about his films.

A must watch for all Kiarostami fans!
