An investigation, at once lucid and enigmatic, of exile, loneliness and the fragile possibility of friendship.

Top CriticHassan Yektapanah's Djomeh, from his own screenplay, continues Iranian cinema's deceptively simple yet exquisitely conducted explorations of the Iranian psyche in the context of a workaday reality.
09/28/01
Top CriticHas a keen sense of the pace of everyday life.
09/06/01
It is a sublime, carefully assembled movie.
03/01/02
It is a minor effort, satisfying only on its own limited terms.
12/09/01
Chekhov in the Iranian mountains: intriguing!
08/24/01
Among the most formally accomplished of new Iranian films.
09/04/01
Top CriticA melancholic mediation on the constant and often elusive yearning for companionship and love, it also speaks volumes about the barbarity of cultural and religious intolerance.
12/17/01
Deceptively simple, ultimately heart-breaking drama.
03/01/02
[S]hows such a painterly eye for framing and composition that the story is almost superfluous to the glory of its pictures.
09/06/01
Top CriticMore realistic and much more enjoyable to watch than something packed full of professional actors (like America's Sweethearts).
08/08/01
Perhaps the strangest and most rewarding romance you'll see all year.
09/07/01
Agonizingly slow-moving and talky, it consists primarily of conversations between two men in a truck.
09/07/01
Top CriticA modest, unpretentious film whose heartfelt humanism shines through.
07/24/01
This gentle and somewhat slow moving romantic fable has a quiet sweetness all its own.
09/06/01
A film that gives you the illusion of eavesdropping on life as it's actually lived, on people as they actually behave.
02/07/02
Top CriticThis film's painful story is one to which people from all corners of the globe can relate or at least understand.
