Presented by King's Film Society.

After being sentenced to six years of house arrest and a twenty-year ban on making films in 2010, the Iranian director Jafar Panahi got around these strictures by shooting his subsequent features This Is Not a Film entirely within his apartment and Closed Curtain at his summer house. For his new film, Panahi retreats to an even more confined location: a taxi that circles the streets of Tehran, with Panahi himself in the driver's seat. Without ever leaving the cab, Panahi quietly orchestrates a multi-layered mosaic of life in today's Iran as he coaxes the people he picks up to speak to him about their concerns, fears, hopes, and expectations.

Directed/Screenplay by Jafar Panahi
