I'm yet to see a larger-than-life Iranian film where characters defy physics, logic, and emotions-here's another sweet little gem to add to that list. This is a story of two 70-year-olds finding love one fine evening, sharing life's little details and cherishing its little moments along the way. We meet Mahin (an absolutely adorable Lili Farhadpour) as she goes about her day, understanding more about her through the slice-of-life interactions she has with the people around. Faramarz (Esmaeel Mehrabi, playing the tender counterpart to perfection) enters her life as randomly as it can get, and this leads to interesting conversations, wine, and merry-making. A late (and expected) swerve only reminds you of how happy moments don't last forever, but neither do the sad ones. Also, when all this plays out in a country that's big on moral policing, how can you not smile first (and sigh later)?

This film is full of beauty and magic of all the small things and also tragedy. The quiet longing of the main protagonist and her courage and chuzpe when she is standing up for herself and tries ro find new ways to find love again are beautiful and sometimes fun to watch. But you are always reminded that you are in a country that restrics the rights of women. Here you have the nousy neighbor too, but you realise, that she can get you in real trouble.

On the other hand that precious romance between. Mahin and Faramaz brings so many sweet moments and also some laughs.

After the premier I was deeply moved.

The movie had such an innocent vibe, but what it was trying to say really hit hard. Normally, I don't get emotional about old people, but just the fact that the main character was old was enough to make me feel sad. Maybe it's because of the actress's performance too; there was this pure loneliness in her eyes. I found myself really touched by the film.

The cinematography was beautiful too. I really liked the warm tones, the way the house was decorated, and how the garden was lit. Everything just fit so well. The moments between the two main characters, like when they danced and took selfies, were really sweet and tender. The ending hit harder this way, but a part of me still wishes movies like this would be a bit more clear with their message at the end.

I watched this film in my favourite little local art house cinema not really knowing what to expect.

I have come to like films where I can watch other people's lives. People doing every day things. When they are set in different cultures - even more interesting.

Here we follow the life of an elderly woman in Iran and I was so touched by the beauty in the little things, the dinner with her girlfriends, how she spends her day.

The film holds an unexpected surprise that really stuck with me for a long time afterwards. It made me appreciate that I was able to see this film and that I am able to live my life (as a woman) in Europe.

I can recommend this film.

Reality movie about iranian women life stiles. Very good to watch and understand the culture of Iranian.

She reminds our real grandmothers Living with their decision but under pressure of country rules which don't make sense for them.

Real home design, real dress up Very good acting The man also was real It's also a comedy movie but more like dark comedy Actually living with stupid rules in that country which many people don't believe them are dark comedy in general I recommend the movie for whom want to see a real picture of persian people in iran

Why a review should be this much long !

My god.
