“Extraordinary. Every moment of it attests to the work of a master.”—David Fear, Rolling Stone
Vahid, an unassuming mechanic, has a chance encounter with Eghbal, a man he strongly suspects to be his former sadistic jailhouse captor. Panicked, Vahid gathers several former prisoners, all abused by that same captor, to try and confirm Eghbal’s identity. As the bickering group drives around Tehran with the captive, they must confront how far to take matters into their own hands with their presumed tormentor.
From master filmmaker Jafar Panahi comes a searing moral thriller that engages with complex ideas about the uncertainty of the truth and the choice between revenge and mercy, as Panahi turns his personal dissonance into a profound and galvanizing work of art. Winner of the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival and nominated for three European Film Awards including Best European Film, Best European Director, and Best European Screenwriter. 2025, Iran/France/Luxembourg/U.S., DCP, in Persian with English subtitles, 103 minutes. Rated PG-13.
