Writing
Sharp satire of Iran's political theater through domestic absurdity.
Acting
Ghasemkhani and Javan's bitter chemistry sells the ridiculous premise.
Director
Hamed Mohammadi
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Released during heightened political tension in Iran, the film's bipartisan parenting nightmare resonated as accidental allegory. Director Mohammadi claimed the script predated current events.
Ghasemkhani and Javan are real-life friends from opposing political families, casting that required zero acting for the resentment. Their actual children appear in the birthday party scene.
