At some point during the film, Caveh starts talking about a friend of his named Devin and their bond. Being a Devin (albeit a male one) myself, and being a former student of Caveh, I found that segment both amusing and awkward. This is a brilliant and hilarious documentary, though, and I admire him for making it.
"I've been living on toxic waste for years, and I'm fine. Just ask my other heads!"
I thought Devin was the girl who later died of cancer??
The way Caveh intersperse personal clip with movie is very powerful for me, especially that scene with Devin's - a brutal honesty and a look at his life and her life.

I found the film very amusing and then every so often poignant and sad. The saddest part was seeing the real Devin in clips and learning what became of her.
The distance is nothing. The first step is the hardest.share
