Hamsarayan (The Chorus) - Abbas Kiarostami



A deaf old man wearing a hearing aid is walking in the streets of Rasht. When the surroundings get too noisy, he turns off his sound. Unfortunately, when he returns home, he doesn’t hear his granddaughter, home from school, vainly ringing the doorbell. A chorus of children gathers to penetrate the old man's silence.

This is one of Abbas Kiarostami's finest short works. With the minimum of elements and every pound of sensibility and grace he could afford, the Iranian master shot a precious and brief manifest of some things really worth in life. You can see Víctor Erice's "The spirit of the beehive" (1973) - shot ten year before, and surely well known by Kiarostami -and maybe some curious Raymond Depardon's children in between the warm frames of this tiny piece that everyone who wants to be a director must see. The metaphor is clear and simple: we need human "touch" to be human. Don't miss it and if you have the opportunity to see it, please recommend it. ( Author: postcefalu from Spain from IMDB)

Bad ma ra khahad bord ('The Wind Will Carry Us') (1999) - Abbas Kiarostami



Behzad, a filmmaker from Tehran travels to a remote mountain village secretly planning to record a local ritual ceremony surrounding an old dying woman. Upon arrival, Behzad and his crew are met by Farzad, a young boy from the town who at first becomes their guide but ultimately becomes their informant on the fate of the old woman. Convincing the locals that they are archeologists looking for buried treasure, Behzad attempts to befriend them with mixed results. As the rustling wind, golden light and deep shadows of the village cast an alluring spell, the deathwatch drags on and the woman stubbornly clings to life, leaving Behzad's crew impatient. Evocative and haunting, THE WIND WILL CARRY US is constructed with Kiarostami's trademark soulful serenity, creating an extraordinarily beautiful and moving film.

Ta'm e guilass (Taste of Cherry) (1997) - Abbas Kiarostami

The hot, dry, dusty wind clogging your face, the bitter brutal sun streaming down the faces and bodies of workers surrounding the digging, sifting, and moving of dirt, and the massive machines clanging in the back ground, create the visual focal point of the story. Life is what we're all a part of, whether good or bad, we must succeed in the most positive way we know how or it can take us over in grief and despair, as it has with one man. This man wants to rid himself of the world, but in a twist, he wants to make sure his body lays resting in a peaceful and good place. His journey has him searching for just that person who'll help him with his final plans.

Mr. Badii (Homayan Ershadi) is a man whose quest leads him to many revelations about people and life while in his search for someone to help properly assist him in his demise from the world. Mr. Badii is not looking for someone to kill him, but rather cover him with the earth from which all good things come. He has already found his burial spot and dug the hole in which he shall place himself. Now Mr. Badii only needs to find the person who will help him. The interesting thing is if Mr. Badii is not dead, he wishes for the same hand that will throw the dirt on top of him, to take his hand and help him out of the grave, if he responds to his name being called.
