Dar Enteha-ye Shab

I feel so lucky to live in a day and time to see such a beautiful crafted story from Iran.

The emotions embedded in this mini story were so strong that with every smile I smiled and with every sorrow I cried.

I cried for the "smart mouth" Gen. Alpha child that was desperately trying to keep his mom and dad together, to live a simple happy peaceful life every child deserves and expects. I cried for a woman that never got to chase the career she loved due to family restrictions and had to pursue something else in order give meaning in her life.

Cried for a man who had such a respectful demeanor towards others and was stuck in between two relationships. Cried for a father that raised his two daughters all alone after their mother's passing. Cried for another woman that felt she was not a person at all and she existed only to serve other peoples emotional needs.

I also felt joy for every moment these characters smiled and felt happiness. So beautiful... so unforgettable. Thank you.

I have never enjoyed a drama as much as I enjoyed this beautiful mini-series.

To me, it was a huge success. The plot was strong, successfully portraying the ups and downs of a middle-class family in Iran. A family that started out with the power of love and ended with the devastating effects of the significant differences between the couple regarding their view of life.

The cast was chosen perfectly. Parsa Pirouzfar played one of the best roles of his magnificent career. Hoda Zeinolabedin and the rest of the cast were equally outstanding. They beautifully played their roles, while also revealing the insecurities and hidden aspects of their characters to the viewers.

I cannot begin to explain how much I enjoyed the cinematography and the stunning shots throughout each episode.

None of this would have been as amazing without the great job Ms. Panahi did with her direction. I failed to notice any continuity flaws or blunders, and even if there were any, they were negligible.

In conclusion, I highly recommend this mini-series to anyone interested in a compelling exploration of the psychology behind many marriages.

This miniseries is an excellent depiction of so many marriages today. So beautiful, the writting is so on point. The photography art is great. Actors are incredible. The acting is intense and seems so real. Please do not miss it! What an exquisite production!

Definitely one of the best things I've watched in years.

Here is the review for you to use for rating: * Genre: Romantic Drama, Social Drama * Director: Ayda Panahandeh * Number of Episodes: 9 Episodes (Mini-series) * Main Cast: Parsa Pirouzfar, Hoda Zeinolabedin 💡 Story Summary: The series tells the story of the marriage between Behnam (Parsa Pirouzfar), an artistic architect, and Mahrokh (Hoda Zeinolabedin), who owns an art gallery. They are a married couple with a son named Dara. The series realistically and effectively highlights the deep and silent problems within a family, especially those caused by economic changes and differences in lifestyle in today's society. On the surface, the problems seem simple, but over time, silence and unresolved issues push them towards a difficult decision: separation.

👍 Strengths: * Realism of Content: The biggest strength of the series is that it addresses marital issues in a very believable way, close to the daily lives of most couples. Their problems (bank debt, housing issues, differences in child rearing) are relatable and resonate deeply with Iranian and Kurdish audiences.

* Impactful Acting: The performances by Parsa Pirouzfar and Hoda Zeinolabedin are very strong, and they particularly succeed in conveying hidden emotions and bitter silences effectively.

* Feminine Direction and Detail: The director, Ayda Panahandeh, has focused special attention on psychological and emotional details, particularly regarding the character of 'Mahrokh'.

👎 Weak Points (Notes): * Slow Pacing Initially: Some viewers may find the series' pace in the early episodes to be a bit slow or long, as it focuses heavily on establishing the atmosphere and introducing the characters.

* A Bit of Darkness in the Ending: The series focuses more on the disappointments and hardships of life, which might be a bit depressing for some.

If I had to summarize this mini-series, I'd call it a beautifully crafted trailer of real life-an emotional journey that portrays the anxieties couples face when confronting their past, present, and future. It reveals how decisions in each moment shape us and explores familiar struggles we often fail to see because we're living them. The story delicately balances perspectives, showing that both men and women can be right and wrong at once. Enhanced by an exquisite soundtrack that amplifies its emotional depth, this series is a must-watch. I highly recommend it for anyone seeking thought-provoking drama paired with soulful music.
