One of the best movies i i had ever seen,this is not all of iran

A complete drum and, in all sense, one of the best Iranian films, thanks to the dear Saeed Rustayi for making a good and lasting effect, forever and one day, a flip. It's a lie to remind us of a forgotten class. The buried class is under the rubbish of misery and poverty, and of addiction and dangers, and ....... But the most controversial and, most of all, the most golden, The dialogue is the one where Morteza said loudly to everyone: "Anyone can, and there is no shortage of lesser dogs, every time they go and get back from the dog less, less." This dialogue is tapped in the face of the audience.

This is an extremely good realistic movie about a family and it's miserable members. If you don't understand Persian language, you may find it little difficult to read the subtitle and keep up the fast moving documentary style visuals at the same time. But, as the film progress, it's amazing, you will get into it completely. Each character is well defined, there is no good or bad, everything is situation driven. This is the reason I love Iranian films so much. Amazing job on the acting as well.

I highly recommend this movie to everyone who like to see how an impoverished life can be in Tehran.

Somayeh's found a way to make a leap, from the destitution her family's buried deep, it's an arrangement, there's no desire, no spark or glue or love or fire, but it takes her to a place off the scrapheap. It's a choice that causes chaos and confusion, as she's a pivotal part of the family institution, how will they cope when she has left, although they'll all feel quite bereft, but she's always made substantial contribution.

It's a wonderful piece of filmmaking with some top drawer performances that leave you under no illusion of what poverty and drug addiction can lead to. The story flows seamlessly, the dialogue is raw and realistic, as with the rest of this directors films, it drops you into a world you could hardly imagine, a world of people living on the edge.
