5.0 out of 5 stars "Marooned in Irak" - another Iranian gem, 12 Jan 2004
By Oliver Currie (Aubervilliers, Seine Saint Denis, France) - See all my reviews
An unforgetable film - it has intense pathos but also a dry and subtle humour. Shot in the bleak but stunning winter mountain landscapes of Iraki and Iranian Kurdistan, the film follows a similar tragic route to Bahman Ghobadi's earlier film "A Time for Drunken Horses"; a father with his two sons, all musicians, cross the border into Irak after receiving a mysterious message from his wife, who had left for Irak many years earlier and who had not seen since. In the aftermath of the chemical attacks on the Iraki Kurds by Saddam Hussein, they find desolation, but also a passion and joy in music, as they play and sing for the crowds they meet.

Typical of much contemporary Iranian cinema, this is an intensely realistic as well as a poetic film (cf. "The Wind will carry us away" by Abbas Kiarostami; "The Colour of Paradise" by Majid Majidi), stunning both visually and musically.
