Review of Offside (2006) by Josh S — 13 Nov 2007
My favorite Iranian movie, and one that could change the world. Totally entertaining look at girls who just want to watch the world football championship, all their reasons for doing so, breathless and unpretentious political commentary.
..and all right there as it happens during the game! Panahi is a master and this film is IMO his strongest, or at least his most entertaining. A perfect movie for anybody who is interested in exploring Iranian culture and not interested in preachiness.
