A young girl leaves school and discovers that her mother is not outside waiting. She boards a bus, but realizes that she has gone the wrong way. Suddenly the actress announces “I don’t want to play this part anymore!” From the director of award-winning The White Balloon and The Circle.
A child’s-eye adventure in the vein of his classic The White Balloon, Jafar Panahi’s meta film playfully unravels its own neorealist premise. Endearingly delightful to follow, the journey of a little girl through Tehran’s sea of people and traffic is subtly grounded in its sociopolitical realities.
