Slice of Life


This was my first Iranian movie. I enjoyed what looked like a slice of life. I'd like to know what Iranians think of this movie. I thought that the character of Nasser lacked compassion for his sister-in-law; he wanted to use her for his own ends and tried to do this by citing religious tradition. He also did seem to be under some pressure from the community to marry her, so it wasn't entirely his fault. It looked as though his siser-in-law defeated him at the end. I'd like to see more English language film that showed a slice of life like this, where one feels one is eavesdropping on the scenes and conversations.
