Nader and Simin: A Separation

In the end, as in the beginning, how different is an Iranian family from an American family? Nader and Simin receives praise and a review here, and wins the Golden Bear Berlin Prize for best foreign film in 2011.  Yet when I pause to see the clips, and struggle with translations, I see humanity, not nationality.




And joy in the success of a sensitively drawn storyline:

Iran Election

So many voters, so little time that the poll hours have been extended.
