A must watch!

Farhadi and alidoosti's second and in my opinion best film. The film belongs to the time that he was interested in poor class people lives and hasn't shifted to intellectual middle class people. The only weakness of this film is its somehow tv like atmosphere and the reason is that Farhadi was new in cinema and before that had directed and written lots of TV masterpieces. Actually this film was one episode of his tv serie 'the story of a city," but because af its really dark and bitter story, he didn't get approval.

beautiful movie

"Shahr-e Ziba" graces the screen with my 7/10 rating, and I have to say, I liked it. The acting captures the nuances of characters navigating the complexities of love and life in the bustling city of Tehran. The film editing weaves together interconnected stories, reflecting the chaotic beauty of urban existence. Its strength lies in its portrayal of the pursuit of dreams and the resilience of the human spirit amidst adversity. The music, infused with Persian melodies, adds emotional depth, and the cinematography paints a vivid tapestry of the city's vibrant streets and hidden corners. "Shahr-e Ziba" is a heartfelt ode to Tehran, a reminder that even in the midst of chaos, there is poetry to be found, and my liking for it is as enduring as the city's timeless charm.
