Both are on their way to an unspecified destination. Jafar is driving. During the journey, the dialogue between the two creators, occasionally interrupted by a call on Jafar's cell phone, is sustained. Among other things, Jafar Panahi talks about the clandestine situation to which the regime has forced him, his state of mind and his determination to resist in spite of all the pressure. When they arrive at their destination, the cemetery where their mentor, the great director Abbas Kiarostami, is buried, Jafar Panahi, deeply moved, lets Majid enter alone to put flowers on his grave. Going to his master's grave would mean admitting that he would never see him again, which is beyond his strength. Written by Guy Bellinger See less
