Ruiguang W @RuiguangW Dec 5 Embarrassing propaganda from an Israeli director to cast the Iranian government in a bad light, even if justified. This was not motivated by an attempt to bridge the differences between two countries, but by a subtle type of condescending bigotry from the director. See more spoko s @spoko Sep 22 Tatami leans heavily on a pair of spectacular performances by Arienne Mandi & Zar Amir Ebrahimi. Both Leila and Maryam came across as remarkably strong, layered characters, and the acting carried all the weight of their impossible circumstances. It was an intensely personal story, with just a glimpse into the depth and breadth of women’s struggle under the religious regime in Iran. Powerful.

Thank you, thank you for saving us! This movie is so, so well made. The script is very well written. The direction and acting is top notch. The editing and choreographed judo fights are so well done (even for us judo neophytes). And filming it in black & white is perfect. Huge kudos to everyone involved in this production...especially to the Iranian co-director for having the guts in joining to direct it (that could not have been an easy decision). The story could not be more timely (including for those of us in America watching what is currently becoming of our country). Thank you again for making this important film.

There is tension on the mat and outside the gym. Guaranteed to keep your attention. The ending could be predictable, but it isn't. See more Read all reviews
