The rare film equally influenced by Quentin Tarantino, Jean Renoir and William Saroyan, this time-winding triptych has a deep humanist sense and a feel for working-class folk whiling away the hours.

Reviews for Cafe Setareh
There's no lack of tear-jerking and melodramatic developments, but they are sustained by [director] Moghadam's steadfast belief in the mutually supportive value of community life, so endangered in rapidly changing, increasingly impersonal cities.
[Director Saman] Moghadam keeps Café Setareh bouncing along for a while, but as he shifts the story's perspective from one woman to the next, he covers so much of the same narrative ground that we feel like we've seen it all before.
