    Like Someone in Love (Abbas Kiarostami)

    Trailer

    It tells the story of a young Japanese woman who finances her studies through prostitution.
    Obviously nothing to the plot synopsis, but those are irrelevant anyways. Not used to seeing Kiarostami in modernized urban settings. I'm still adapting. But I'm still excited!

    Close-Up? Ten?
    Just because...
    The Fabelmans (Steven Spielberg, 2022) mild
    Petite maman (Céline Sciamma, 2021) mild
    The Banshees of Inisherin (Martin McDonagh, 2022) mild

    The last book I read was...
    The Complete Short Stories by Mark Twain

    The (New) World

    I think B-Side means to say he's not used to seeing Kiarostami in non-Tehranian Non-Tehran settings.

    Tehran is a bit different than, say, Tokyo.
