Nocturnal (2006)
0 /10
A young woman tries to deal with the insight that her brother is dying. Shabnam is a photographer and sister of a famous war photographer, Hamed. Just before she goes to a party, she is told that the brother has been injured and is in hospital. Shabnam is dragged into a series of strange events, where the boundary between rus and reality is blurred. The debuting feature film directors are also film and art critics in Iran, Bonakdar himself artist - hardly surprising given the film's strong image awareness. It also has to be overlooked with the bit-wise banal depictions of cocaine scrambling and dangerous men.

6.7 /10
This time the action is restricted to a kindergarten, a world seemingly far removed from real life in Iran. Pre-school is the first and last time boys and girls can learn together freely before entering the strictly segregated education system. Much like the dog in Toodehroosta’s well received first feature Paat (2013), six-year-old Roham plays the often silent witness to the actions unfurling around him. As his curiosity grows, the complicated real lives of the other pupils start to unravel.
