Tardes En El Diván

If you want your main character to go into some dream/alternative sequence, you need to set it up properly. The story was going well until out of nowhere you are stuck in a car with an imaginary character for no rhyme or reason. That killed it for me. That whole scene needs to be edited out.

Overall great acting, funny spoofish characters.

I loved every moment of the movie, i loved how it's simple and outgoing. Salma and all the actors made outstanding performance. the only thing i didn't like is the end, how short it was.

The movie literally makes you feel blues. Well at least I did. After 1 hour you are totally into her blues as much and want her to go back to where came from having left a comfy life in Paris. Overall, Golshifteh Is a brilliant actress and She shines throughout the movie. Hoping to see her in more movies!!

The struggle to become something or someone .. to succeed in ones profession or dream/pursuit. And if you are a woman ... well the struggle can be even worse. Especially in some countries and situations. Not that we have reached real equality anywhere, but in some countries it is even worse than in others, when it comes to women being able to work however they want to.

That is just the basis, just one of the points the movie is making. Psychologically speaking there is more to it. Great central performance, great persistence, great fight for what she believes in. And really fun and interesting side stories of the ... side characters overall. A nice little movie/drama, that you will like if you are into low budget character studies.

A beautiful film to see. Set in Tunis, it has various readings within it, from light and cheerful to deep and full of intense content that an attentive audience will have the pleasure of noticing.
