It may prove frustratingly slow for some viewers, but more contemplative filmgoers will find themselves rewarded by The Patience Stone's quietly fierce storytelling, as well as a searing starring turn from Golshifteh Farahani.

A real one-off.

By turns mysterious, moving, shocking and explicit - and very different from the kind of opaque and quietist cinema we might expect. Dec 5, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

With a piercing edge, "The Patience Stone" is a cry from behind the veil, where a suffocating woman weaves a new life of her own design. Oct 3, 2013 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

A beautiful and haunting Afghan film about love, devotion, and a woman's 'duty'; a remarkable feminist story from the unlikeliest place on the planet. Mar 11, 2014 | Full Review…

As it progresses the woman's story is paralleled with several religious myths and it builds to a conclusion that is terrifying, far-fetched and powerfully-realised. The final moments resonate with a mythic quality. Dec 11, 2013 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
