It’s Winter - Zemstan (2006) |
|
A man is fired from his job. Having no more options, he decides to go find work abroad, leaving behind his wife and daughter. Months pass and his family hear no word from him. A stranger, a mechanic, arrives in town in search of work. His eyes wander to the beautiful young woman whom he hears no longer has a husband. A struggle to survive of a generation torn between wanting to leave its country yet bound by blood to home. Beautifully shot, with a minimum of dialogue, the film poignantly depicts the desperate lives of those who live in poverty in modern Iran. |
