The atmosphere of the film encompasses fantasy, comedy, and romance, but becomes disappointing after a short good start.
Elnaz Habibi portrays the role of a girlfriend well during the first minutes, but the story lacks depth, and the characters are underdeveloped. The marital disputes and agreements feel clichéd, leading me to suspect the government's involvement in promoting marriage and family. Some scenes resemble TV commercials, with more attention given to design than storytelling. However, the scene design feels unnatural in some parts too, for example signs of newly purchased (unused) kitchen items are obvious. The casting choices are flawed, particularly the youngest son's role and performance, which negatively impact the overall quality of the movie.
Perhaps the positive point of the film is its attempt to show forbidden scenes in Iranian cinema, such as hugging and kissing, husband and wife sleeping in the same bed, etc., which reminds us that after the Islamic revolution, we forgot showing how to love to our children (And now we are worried about marriage and population decline).
All in all, this movie did not meet my expectations from the director of Italy, Italy.
My score is 5.5.
