surprisingly fresh

well, this movie won't be seen by many people, i guess. which cinema would show an iranian movie? i only know two movies from iran, "the apple" and "iranian spread". and both have this unique view from inside a not well known country (except for the well known clericals). iranian spread manages it to show many facettes of the iranian daily life from the point of view of over twenty characters. it looks like too much for the recipients, but it isn't.in the end of the movie you have been able to identify yourself with every character, which means a lot. you will see very poor people and very rich ones, old and young, traditional and already globalized "modern" ones. you'll not only see the whole iran and the society but also a movie about moral - because most of the characters recognize, that the bank note is a fake and most of these have to make a decision about what shall happen to it. this movie is worth to be seen because it teaches the recipients how a society works.
