    Iranian connection
    More than excellent documentary movie about the fight between Iranian police and the drug traffic kingpins. No action scenes, no gunfights but awesome acting and directing. No length, despite the genuine length of the film, because you are glued to this story. I don't think Hollywood film industry would have made such a film. Here, the drug traffic big shot is shown in such a way that the audiences may feel empathy for him, and not for the policeman who tracks him down and nail him. A very ruthless policeman, who applies the law to the letter, no matter the disgrace on families, no matter pain and suffering that this very same law application provokes.

    A very good movie indeed.
