Synopse

What begins as a little accident, sets off a whole chain of events: Jafar Panahi’s new film is a cheeky settling of political scores with the Iranian regime and at the same time a tense thriller. Vahid, an Azerbaijani mechanic, was once imprisoned by the Iranian authorities. During his time in jail, he was blindfolded, interrogated and mistreated. One day, a man called Eghbal comes to Vahid’s workshop. His artificial leg creaks, a sound that Vahid thinks he’s heard before, in prison. He kidnaps Eghbal, intending to take revenge on him along with other former victims. But is Eghbal really the man they take him for?


Regie

JAFAR PANAHI is one of the best-known and most definitive directors in Iranian cinema. His criticism of the regime has got him banned and arrested many times. Works like Der Kreis (2000), Dies ist kein Film (2011), Taxi Teheran (2015) and Keine Bären (2022) have won many awards. It Was Just an Accident won the Golden Palm at Cannes. FILMFEST HAMBURG has shown several of his films and awarded him the Douglas Sirk Prize in 2018.
