The film works brilliantly within the unity of time, place, and action. There is not a scene, not a dialogue, that is superfluous. The 3 faces of the title are the faces of a wannabe actress, an actress, and a former actress who all struggle against social persecution and ostracism. Panahi's love for the absurd and the ironic keeps the film afloat in an otherwise dark sea of pathos. Saw this film in Kolkata Film Festival 2018.
