This short documentary offers an experimental exploration of cinema through the vision of Abbas Kiarostami—one of the most influential figures in Iranian and world cinema. Drawing inspiration from the distinctive aesthetic and philosophical approach of Kiarostami’s body of work, the film examines the intricate relationship between cinema and reality. Rather than offering a conventional portrait, it adopts an experimental language to engage with Kiarostami’s cinematic worldview, inviting the audience to reflect on the boundaries between fiction and truth.
