  • ★★★★ review by Tharindu Jayarathna on Letterboxd

    It’s really good film.

  • ★★★★ review by Iesindu Haywagamagay on Letterboxd

    Frame within a frame; a human inside a human. The never ending story of the womb.

  • ★★★½ review by Michael on Letterboxd

    A pregnant woman, alone, who appears to have been beaten, gets into a taxi while the driver is eating his lunch and begs to be taken to the hospital. That the story takes place in Iran means there’s risk at every step as the taciturn driver tries, in his own way, to help a stranger.

    The interplay of assumptions and perception once they reach a hospital is universal, but perhaps carries more weight and danger in this environment.
