Meet the Artists '11: Maryam Keshavarz

[MrFarpolo]

This movie is an absolute catasrophy,The relationships in the family are so not real,The value system of the charectors are false and the whole thing is just a waste of time,Maybe interesting for the western media and viewers,

[MysteriousRadio]

@MrFarpolo why?

[zaheer130287]

The film is good, for a story ofcourse which happens on a daily basis on people who are going through such phases in their life ( lonelines, an urge for freedom,sex,nuditiy) however i oppose the fact it reflects to the situation in the Islamic republic of Iran and this is what's going on in Iranian households. I believe the movie would have been better if it were on a general prospective reflecting the situation of lonely teenagers around the globe and not in one country, definitely not Iran.

[tolkienfan51]

I wonder if its possible for a Western director to film in Iran. If anyone knows or knows if this has ever happened please let me know.

[towhidyr]

I love to know what city in Iran her family comes from. I would definitely see the movie when I can.

[goodcharlotte246]

cant wait to see it! looks brill ! :D

[Hormoz1366]

Guys this movie has not released yet.

[jhsdakjfhdkh]

this looks great!

do you know where can it be downloaded?

[jighiliano87]

The theme of the movie was pretty good. it was a new theme. on the other hand, the acting was so poor that some scenes seemed very awkward and the audience literally laughed at such amateur actors/actresses. I wish way better actors.actresses were hired for this movie.

love it



[ithinkilikethis]

Fantastic movie! Well done!

[lmallen2790]

great movie. i loved it.

[maryashahid123]

Kutha lol jk

[uswaiter]

I saw the movie. Great subtitles and cinematography but too many loose ends as far as the story is concerned. The idea was great on paper until it materialized onto the screen. Great movie for Americans, not so great for Iranians. 90% of them speak Farsi with a slight accent. Great subject to tackle, Poor execution... B- bordering on C+

[nimarzv]

whatever you did it was awful ! at least go find some actors who can speak farsi with good accent ! those two girls who grew up out of iran and out of iran problems they cant act as a persian girl who is in iran and live with that circumstances ! they even couldnt talk like one of them !

[vagimanzar]

@MyParsi these things are every where not only in Iran. Love is love, see it that way. and don't judge, because we are all different

[TheSarajoon]

yeah you right

[Aryobarzan44]

Wow!!! your English is so good and your common sense is so fucked up. After all theses years and at this desperate moments that people die for freedom and are executed on daily basis you really found the topic of the day to turn it into a movie.You are so fucked up in your head. You could have utilize your resources and make a movie that serves your nation not your personal inclination.

[zecaptaintunaart]

@Aryobarzan44

I think it is you who has your common sense fucked up.

This woman made a movie. It looks beautifully shot and written.  She obviously put a lot of though and effort into it. Who are you to tell someone how to do their art or what their topic should be? She is allowing the audience to better understand a culture that is often portrayed incorrectly to outsiders, especially through the news.

[Aryobarzan44]

@zecaptaintunaart listen Mr! zepeleshk or whatever you are, it is about what is more important to my nation today, not some gay lesbo stories that people like you are interested. Sitting on your couch, watching your movie, eating your pizza, and acting and talking pseudointellectually and trying to explain what she is trying to portray. She is screwed up in her head as you are. Make stupid comments while your country!! is robbed by thieves and thugs. Wow you are so great too Jack!!

[annata12]

@Aryobarzan44 This is just as much an aspect of freedom as anything else, to love whom you love and not be condemned for it, is also sacrificed on the same theocratic altar as anything else in islamic nations

[Aryobarzan44]

@annata12 Perhaps this is also another aspect of freedom as you have said. But at this historical stage of Iranian desperation this issue is irrelevant. There are much more greater problems that need to be focused on. We need to reflect issues that can magnify our nations effort for freedom not those that are more marginal at this very moment. Think about it deeply before trying to comment again. The first priority is Iran and nothing more, nothing less.

[annata12]

@Aryobarzan44 believe me this movie is just as good a propaganda for Iran as the stoning for Soraya M was. Freedom doesn't come in packages, you have to fight for them and gain it in increments, but the freedom to love whom you want is the same freedom that let's you worship the god of your choosing, or no god at all, to have a say in government and not have government legislate theology! Freedom is being sovereign in your life as long as you don't harm other people.

[Aryobarzan44]

@annata12 With all due respect Anna, I think you are not Persian and even if you are which I doubt it you have either been away from Iran for a long time or you do not have enough information about ongoing situation in Iran. unfortunately, I cannot be very illuminating through this limited youtube posting so I do not want to continue further discussion over Keshavarz's work since I do not believe in this kind of work. I think I have made my point.

[MrPorpori]
