Shab, Dakheli, Divar

I rarely write any review for any movie on IMDb , but this movie made me write a review for it because it was absolutely beautiful and deserved the rating that I gave for it . I have seen a lot of movies but this one was very special to me , because the acting , the directing , the cinematography , the pacing of the story , the ending and the beginning , everything made sense and I really loved it. I would definitely recommend you to watch this movie with family or friends because it would be a whole journey of thoughts and emotion for you . By the way if you didn't know this movie as the time that I'm writing this is released on legally and director and the producer won't make any money out of it which is a shame, because I would definitely love to see the work of this director and this team again and again in my life .

What is truly disheartening is the instrumentalization of the film's reception by ideological factions-whether by hypercritical detractors of Navid Mohammadzadeh or regime-affiliated voices-who seek to undermine the film's merit through non-artistic, politically charged narratives. That said, while the narrative arc is undoubtedly masterful in its construction, the film suffers from a degree of directorial immaturity, particularly in the execution of certain scenes and in aspects of the editing, which ultimately diminish the work's full potential.

Moreover, although narrative ambiguity appears to have been employed as a device for layered meaning and interpretive depth, its misapplication at various points weakens the overall coherence of the storytelling and may be perceived as a structural flaw rather than a deliberate aesthetic choice.

The realistic yet striking and thought-provoking performances by Navid Mohammadzadeh and Diana Habibi serve to effectively compensate for the screenplay's structural shortcomings. While the script does not provide detailed backstories or a strong sense of emotional grounding for the characters, the nuanced portrayals by the lead actors successfully fill this gap-allowing an average cinema audience to engage emotionally and intellectually with the narrative.

What is perhaps most commendable is that, emerging from the context of Iran's cinema-marked by its artistic constraints, political pressures, and at times even a conceptual barrenness in protest narratives-the filmmaker, fueled by vision and conviction, has managed to craft one of the most artistically potent forms of dissent.

With the support of daring performances, Shab, Dakheli, Divar ("Beyond the Wall") may not be a flawless cinematic experience, but it stands as a lasting and thought-provoking work within the evolving landscape of Iranian cinema-a cinema still brimming with untapped potential.

"Beyond the Wall" stands out in today's movie market. The film focuses on a visually impaired man living alone in a rundown apartment until he meets a woman fleeing from authorities. Once you hear "authorities," you truly understand its impact, especially if you've experienced life under oppressive regimes like Iran's. That might be why people under dictatorship feel closer to the characters.

The director, who also edited the film, skillfully maintains a simple storyline without unnecessary cuts, making the narrative easy to follow. As the story unfolds, viewers gradually understand the significance of objects, characters, and mysterious letters.

Trust me, "Beyond the Wall" is a satisfying watch that will stay with you.

In Vahid Jalilvand's tense and allegorical film, a blind man unexpectedly shelters a fugitive, illustrating the consequences of losing touch with our humanity.

Ali, portrayed by Navid Mohammadzadeh, contemplates suicide until a concierge informs him that a woman evading authorities may be hiding in his building. Unaware, Ali discovers Leila (Diana Habibi), a single mother separated from her son during a workers' protest.

As Leila seeks refuge in Ali's home, both become ensnared in a claustrophobic struggle for survival, revealing the depths of human connection amidst isolation.

Do yourself a favor, don't dig deeper and watch the movie instead.
