An exquisite showcase of the clash between high theatre and humble aesthetics.

What others think

Refreshingly, Farhadi is ambivalent towards his “hero”, and his control over the film’s tone is masterful.
Simran Hans The Guardian
For what first seems like a conventional drama, the deep-seated tension is thrilling.
Adam Solomons Little White Lies
When it goes wrong, this being a Farhadi drama, it does so intricately, first slowly and then all at once. In scene after scene of pleas and negotiations in airless, yellowed offices, lives are damned or spared in measured tones at moderate volume.
