Mr. Farhadi is an Oscar-winning, Iranian filmmaker and one of the most recognisable directors out there. His third film, Fireworks Wednesdays, paved the way for […]

With the narrative switching back and forth between Long’s imprisonment and his family’s dangerous escape, Journey From the Fall can feel a tad confusing. The structure also dilutes some of the terror of not knowing what happened to their loved ones. But what’s shown is already potent in and of itself, starting with the folktales […]

Of course, with wartime spy romances, it’s expected to have conflicted desire, twisty betrayals, and the internal war between personal love and national duty.
