ULTRA CONSERVATIVE



Iranian cinematography tends to deal with its subjects in a unique way, due to ultraconservative society and some serious limitations when it comes to censorship. Those circumstances lead to a development of some fine and delicate artistic expression between Persian movie directors, like Ashgar Farhadi.

However, he didn't succeed to develop the story about the attack on a woman of a school teacher in a satisfyingly interesting and original way with his script for „Salesman”. Yes, there will be heavy exposure of local customs concerning women and their relationship with men, but the situations and dilemmas that they create just won’t reach the heights of his previous work, namely the much acclaimed „Separation”. The outcome will follow the overall tempo and the taste of the movie, not awing the viewer like it was meant to do.

„Salesman” is „just” a solid drama from a drama renown cinematography.
