A married couple are faced with a difficult decision - to improve the life of their child by moving to another country or to stay in Iran and look after a deteriorating parent who has Alzheimer's disease.
MovieMagicScore Overview
Auto-generatedAsghar Farhadi's 2011 Iranian drama begins with a married couple at an impasse, torn between leaving the country for their child's future and staying to care for an ailing parent with Alzheimer's. From that fracture spirals a tense, morally intricate story in which truth, class, and faith collide. Precise and quietly devastating, the film treats ordinary decisions as ethical minefields, refusing easy answers. With an excellent MagicMovieScore of 7.9, it is essential viewing for those who value richly humane world cinema and dramas where every choice carries consequence.
