    Storyline

    Edit
    Mina's life is turned upside down when she learns that her husband Babak was wrongly accused of the crime for which he was executed. The bureaucracy apologizes for the miscarriage of justice and holds out the prospect of financial compensation. As an act of self-respect and for the sake of her deaf daughter, Mina takes up the fight against an apparatus marked by cynicism; she demands an apology. Just as money is running out and she loses her flat, a stranger named Reza shows up. He claims to have owed Babak a debt that he now wants to settle.

    Mesmerising
    Finally quality cinematography after a long time. Fortunately this is because of movies from countries like Iran where this gem comes from. 1 hour and 41 minutes with not a single boring second. It grips you from the beginning without letting you down until the end. A manifestation against death penalty, showing a very original aspect of the facts, so I cannot reveal anything otherwise I am gonna spoil the whole movie. After a while the whole plot points out brilliantly the connection between loss, justice, rules, forgiveness and punishment by people and God; the perfect confession to a crime which falls apart despite the strong evidence. In any case this movie is ideal for every judge and prosecutor out there, it's a very deep lesson to crisis above people for their actions. It also contains some very provoking parts from the Coran, some are quite chilling as this one: the meaning of our life lies at the consequences of our actions. Go and watch it.
