I saw this movie ( #TehranTaboo) (2017) a few years back during #covid lockdown, it looks as if it was first shot and then they passed the whole footage under some #photoshop filters or something (I am not an expert at any aspect of #filmmaking) #Iran #Persian #movies #cinema #film #IranianCinema 🎞️

"In postrevolutionary #Iran, there are so many rules that filmmakers have to follow, and the fact that such beautiful things come through the cracks of those rigid guidelines is nothing short of a miracle. And though #IranianCinema is well known for its family dramas, there’s quite a bit of genre play as well."

Persepolis | Rotten Tomatoes

Based on Satrapi's graphic novel about her life in pre and post-revolutionary Iran and then in Europe. The film traces Satrapi's growth from child to rebellious, punk-loving teenager in Iran. In the background are the growing tensions of the political climate in Iran in the 70s and 80s, with members of her liberal-leaning family detained and then executed, and the background of the disastrous Iran/Iraq war.
