Baran

Iranian writer and director Majid Majidi delivered an heartbreaking tale of love and sacrifice with this this drama. On a construction site in Tehran, a young Kurdish worker stumbles upon a secret of an Afghan refugee that has a profound effect on their lives. Majidi created masterfully a profound and poetic story that's heartbreaking and unforgettable in a film of staggering power. Non-professional actors Hossein Abedini and Zahra Bahrami are pitch perfect in the leads along Majidi's frequent collaborator Mohammad Amir Naji with another terrific performance. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
