The director of Inland, Tariq Tequia seems to be a man who does not like to rush anything. In Inland, he tells the story of Malek, a sad and lonesome topographer, in a very slow and peacefully manner. Therefore, the film-goers who expect action in every scene may just omit this title. The hero of the film is divorced from his wife for the reasons that we do not know, spends his days in his cabin without any human contact.When an old friend asks him to work on an area where the former topographers was killed by the reactionary forces, he obediently accepts and goes to work over there. After a certain development, the film becomes a non-classical road movie, considerably different from anything that Hollywood can create on this particular genre. The film also gives us an idea about the actions of intelligentsia of a developing country who are extremely busy on discussing and seems to be do nothing other than that. The same is also true for the law-enforcement units, they are also unproductive and unreliable.
Inland is a difficult movie, viewers must be patient, but if you can have the gift of patience, then probably you may enjoy the movie. Tariq Tequia is a director from the school of Bresson and Tarkovsky. The future films of him will tell us if he is able to earn his diploma or not.
