Look, as an Iranian watching this with my American girlfriend I could not help but feel a bit of shame over the depiction of the society I come from. However, I can’t deny the existence of this subculture. Is the film reflective of Iranian culture as a whole, no. Is it a visceral representation of aspects of Iran, yes. On the film itself. The acting was outstanding. The man who plays Saeed was simply superb. He was clearly a monster but also deceivingly caring for his family and morals. In general the actors did great. However the film is extremely graphic and 100% should not be seen in the presence of children.
