Some of the best films ever made are ones that the general audience has never seen, and this is because they were made outside the United States. Welcome to another installment of FOREIGN FILM SPOTLIGHT, where we showcase some of the best in foreign cinema to help broaden your horizon. This week we take a look at the incredible 2011 Iranian Oscar winning film, JODAEIYE NADER AZ SIMIN (A SEPARATION).
A Separation is a foreign film written and directed by Asghar
Farhadi. It stars Peyman Moaadi as Nader, Leila Hatami as Simin, and Sareh
Bayet as Razieh. The film is about a married couple who are trying to make a
difficult decision to either improve the life of their child by moving to
another country or looking after a parent who has Alzheimer’s.
