another fantastic film from a country and where due to decade of oppression from fundamentalist regime and have no problem in create passionate subject matter . panahi take a different approach this time around with a blend of ironic comedy and an endearing and non professional cast . while still get across his message of what he see a be inherently wrong with his country and he do so without the need of a heavy storyline . it be a positive take on a country and in particular it people and that the iranian population desperately need . the great pity be it would not be release domestically . the insular and paranoid iranian government assert that this fine film maker be only successful overseas because he be part of a global conspiracy to embarrass them . after grow up amid revolution and watch the academic and artist and educate wouldisappear over the last 25 year he show great bravery in continue to put his work out there . the realism achieve by shoot at the actual world cup qualifier really transport you to the event . the fact he shoot it on 35mm be amaze a most would only attempt this project use a digital format . it look fantastic . his insistence in only use non professional actor also really work in this film . fine performance all round . after watch many film show the problem iran have and also the news medium report the fact we can tend to demonise the people as well a the government . this film do the opposite . it show u they still love the same thing and that by laugh at themselves and the absurd rule of sharia law that maybe a change for the good isn not too far away . some call panahi a feminist film maker but i think he just fight for the most oppressed demographic in iran . young and independent woman .
