Sobhaneh ba zarafeha

Not often do people like such movies,However,the movie is an insane fantasy for the fans! Sehat,as the writer and the director,has made a new vibe with his favorite philosophical topics,which are common in most of his works(at least,since Lisanseh ha),such as Friendship,Life and death. The lack of story,isnt the weakness of the film,but a powerful point,wich splits Sehat from the others. Compared to his previous shows and movies,the music isnt the starring anymore,but still used geniusly,in the interludes,its rare,and in the Iranian movies it was considerd impossible,but Sehat took courage and, like everything he used for the first time, he named it after himself,these interludes let him make the scenes as surreal as he wanted. Characters are too careless,imagine your friend is died,and you are still looking for a little more drug !The director's favorite exploration of concepts occurs in dialogues and situations. In addition to the logical cause-and-effect relationship that also determines the ending, the film, like real life, surprises you at every moment!.putting Revelers and carefree people against the life and death,creates an unforgettable experience. And the ending is cinematicly perfect,and visually stunning...But it still leaves questions unanswered..to conclude,as I told before,an insane fantasy,am unforgetable surreal experience,With a clever balance between tragedy and comedy. Its for the people who just want to laugh,and the people who dont want to just laugh. And to quote the character of the doctor played by Hadi Hejazifar, the film will give you a dark night!

It was a pure Art directed by Soroush Sehat and the fabulous act of Bijan Banafshekhah.

It's a deep movie, it's a dark comedy which touches your soul and at the same time make you suffer!!!

Although you are suffering watching it at the same time, you can't stop watching this. This is something that keeps you on your seat and make you freeze when the movie ends.

It was a mind-game movie, and watch it if you enjoy deep and dark movies.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of time for you.

All the actors are exactly in place, Bijan Banafshekhah is fitting his role 100% and at the same time the other actors are also having a great impact on the overall development of the movie.

I've enjoyed Soroush Sehhat's previous works, but Breakfast with Giraffes was by far the worst. It lacked a coherent storyline, and while the director claimed the movie was about forgiveness, the execution completely missed the mark-if anything, it conveyed the opposite message.

Marketed as a comedy, it was actually a dark drama, and even the occasional comedic moments were predictable, outdated, and at times nonsensical. The title itself felt entirely irrelevant to the film.

To top it off, despite paying for a VIP ticket, Soroush and his team (including Bahram Radan) didn't even stay after the screening for a photo with the audience. Overall, a disappointing experience in every way.

The film isn't a crowd-pleaser, and chances are, if you haven't connected with or appreciated Soroush Sehat's world before, you probably won't enjoy this movie either. But since this is my website, and you're likely here to hear my opinion, I have to say-I didn't like it.

The overall vibe of Breakfast with Giraffes is light and quirky, and the story stems from a concern the director clearly cares about, which is valuable in itself. However, in trying to express that concern, I feel the film loses its way. Honestly, if I hadn't seen the last ten seconds of the movie, I would've said Breakfast with Giraffes was a really bad film. (As it stands, I'll just say it was a bad one.)

Leaving aside the weak storyline and lack of proper character development, I will admit that elements like the soundtrack, cinematography, and humor are above the current standards of Iranian cinema. That's actually what convinced me to add Soroush Sehat's previous film, Dance with Me, to my watchlist.

So yeah-I didn't enjoy this film, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. I'd give it a 4.5 out of 10.

P. S. What's up with this hilarious sleazeball version of Bijan Banafshekhah? :)

At first glance, Breakfast with Giraffes feels like a film with no direction. There's no traditional story, no hero, no antagonist, no dramatic conflict to resolve. It should be boring. But it's not!

Instead, it quietly slips under your skin. Its surreal atmosphere, restrained yet mesmerizing, pulls you in without asking for permission. I often get restless with films that lack narrative momentum, but this one? I watched it in a single take. No breaks. Just breath held.

The film isn't about plot-it's about presence. About being alive. About death. About that strange, empty space in between where you wonder what any of it means. Every shot feels deliberate, like a philosophical painting you're meant to sit with - or a quiet philosophical scream you're not meant to escape.

There's something in this film that reaches out from the screen and quietly disturbs your soul. The film is loaded with subtle messages about simply existing.

The cast inhabits their roles with disarming honesty, and Soroush Sehat directs with such clarity of emotion that the absence of a conventional structure becomes its greatest strength.

Don't watch this expecting comedy. Watch it if you're ready to feel hollow and full at once. You might not smile-but you might cry. And you definitely won't forget it.
